Default Ansen valve covers?

I bought these today. Are they Ansen? They look like Ansen, but they don't say Ansen, or anything else.

I think Ansen made a large run of these valve covers for CP about 10 years ago and they were sold by CP. Pretty sure any Ansen marks were removed on that run.

Oh well, I guess it doesn't matter. They are going on my '67 Chevelle, which is probably going to be a gasser. They will look good on it, but I've got to get a set of the spacers so that they will clear the rocker arms and stud girdles. Anybody got a set of the Ansen 1 1/8 inch spacers for sale?

I have a set of Ansen spacers but they are polished.

That might look all right with these valve covers. I was going to paint them orange with the rest of the engine, but polished might not look bad. I've seen new ones on ebay.

Been out in the shop and storage shed trying to find them but haven't located them just yet? If I do run across them again you are welcome to them but I gotta find them first. Might be buried in the C-Can and won't get back in there until spring.
