Default 1968 CAMARO L-78 VALVE COVERS

I recently purchased a set of chrome valve covers for my l-78 Camaro- Is there any differences from 67, 68 ,69 ,70 etc- I will try to post a picture later tonight. one of the covers has dimple made on one of the ends anout 3 to 4 inches from the wire stand. I do nor remember seeing this before?

I'm not 100% positive, but I think that little bulge on the end is for 69 and maybe 70. Tom

They don't appear to be correct for a 70 Camaro, Chevelle or Nova, there are no sending unit or TCS wire hooks on the sides. If they were there they would have a rubber coating on them as well.
