The pad numbers appear to be raised characters ?

I think it's just an optical illusion that the pad numbers look "raised".
Partly due to the ultra Hi-Gloss Chevy orange paint and the heavy coats applied.
The paint pools up against the edges of the stampings and creates a mini ridge of paint.
That's what I came up with at staring at the pictures for way too long!

That style V1024DZ stamp on a 386 casting? Really.

The "0" is a dead giveaway.
