Theoretically, it is possible. However, if it did turn out to be the original heads, I believe it would be the first known example of an 041 head on a Z/28.
I tore down a L48 in a 69 Impala that had one 186 head and one 041 head, and still had the factory steel shim gaskets with no sign that it had ever been apart. That was in the mid 90s. However, as you know, the L48 had 1.94 intakes. I don't believe there has ever been a documented case of an 041 head with 2.02 valves from the factory. Quite a few have been modified for 2.02 intake valves. You might try a boroscope, but it would be really hard to tell if the head was machined for 2.02 intake valves from the factory without pulling it. The date would make one believe it is likely original to the car. Hate to say never. What is the assy date on the engine? Does it predate the D25 9 head? If so, most likely both heads were replaced at some time.

From what I have seen the 041 head was cast in Tonawanda and primarily used on the 300 Hp 350 applications to help supply the Flint plant due to high demand. It may be possible they could have machined a batch of 2.02 heads to replace the 186 heads in Hi Po applications. My 70 SS Camaro 350 was a 3970014 block cast in Tonawanda and used 041 heads.

I an aware that Camaro High Performance has seen 041 heads used on May built 302 engines. Also, a 350hp '69 Corvette.
Rare, but did happen.
