If they are '63 and older BB covers, they will have only 4 bolts.   I can't tell from your pictures whether they have 4 or 6 bolts.

The top two pictures look identical to the ones on my 440 in a 68 Charger! These covers were off of the number match engine and I see no reason they would have been changed!

Interesting.. But it looks like there would be two oil- & breather caps then and no pcv-vent, or??

Not any activity on the auctions jet. Sad, because I don't see so many valve covers with the holders and tabs (harness holders) still intact.

My mistake, missed that. The top one is the same as mine but mine has a oil filler cap rather than the tube. The middle is identical to one of my pairs!

What kind of many could you expect for them or each av them?

I purchased one pair to my 69 charger for a couple of years ago for 99 dollars...

I think you will find they are from a mid 63/65 C-body.
