The gas cap would have "Vented Anti Surge" embossed on it and be 2 1/4" diameter approx.

Here is my original gas cap of my LS6 Chevelle.
The sides on the back are notched out beside each tooth.

I think that stamped version with the little ears could be a replacement, and not what was used in `70 on the line.
