stock engine perches/mounts?

Hello, I am in the process of getting some custom headers TIG welded, and I do not know if my engine perches are stock. My VIN says my truck came with a 8 cylider stock, and It now has a 429. this is a 68 f100. I was wondering if anyone knew where there is a pics of stock perches and custom/premade mounts for the 429. I DO NOT KNOW if my perches are stock. they are welded to the top and sides of the frame, and there are some holes in the top of the frame too right about where the U shaped perch is welded, and I have rubber mounts on top of that. Thanks i need to know what stock perches look like and if i have them so i can get new mounts AND headers welded. thanks!

If you have a 429 in a a '68 then your perches are not stock. The 429 was not an option.
