However, different assembly plants might have done different things, just as they occasionally did two-tone paint jobs slightly differently.

I couldn't find Chad's pictures of the 11,000 mile engine, and this is the first I've heard about the oil breather not having a sticker. Did they stop using the sticker in '66 or was it just not used on trucks? I really like my sticker, but if it's not supposed to be there I'll rip it off
