So, if a 6/69 built 69 Chevelle has the square mesh originally, might there have been both styles of filter used in the 69 model year, square and diamond mesh?

Back when I posted that photo of the air cleaner on Grady's Blue COPO Chevelle I figured it was the original air cleaner. In later talking to Grady in general about these air cleaner types he could only confirm that this one was on the car when he bought it as a used car.
So it is possible it my not be the born with one ? But it looks good with the rest of the patina.
