I am in the market for a correct carb for my April built '70 LS5 4 speed. Saw this one advertised. The stamp looks good to me. Just wanting a 2nd opinion before I pull the trigger.

Thanks in advance.

For some reason the stamping doesn't look right... here's a real McCoy https://www.ebay.com/itm/265258132582?chn=ps&norover=1&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-117182-37290-0&mkcid=2&mkscid=101&itemid=265258132582&targetid=1645685073248&device=m&mktype=&googleloc=9030127&poi=&campaignid=16730423415&mkgroupid=135815925780&rlsatarget=pla-1645685073248&abcId=9300841&merchantid=101641758&gclid=CjwKCAiA5sieBhBnEiwAR9oh2snweItr0IwQKkQGnMTw ZRXnUMUfW4-KtX-dHr6aWhlo33ix0aY5mRoC_MAQAvD_BwE

I've got a couple 7040205 LS5 carburetors and they look just like that with a weird H. I'll take couple pics for you for a reference.

They all 3 have a deep 5 and a funky H so I think it's legit.

The "H" was my concern.
