69 Chevelle throttle cable info

I'm posting this for a fellow enthusiast who asked me for what I knew about these. I have not come across this in the past.

Looking for information on what kind of identification, if any, was reflected on the 69 Chevelle throttle cable. Chevelle build sheet guru Andy Martin has indicated that box 102 had varying information based on assembly plant. Most of the codes shown in that box were BRN, PUR, ORG, BLA, 7 or 6. Two plants had nothing at all in box 102. It makes sense the first few were actually colours. Have no idea about the 7 and 6.

My good buddy Woj recalls seeing some kind of colour tag or paint dab on a couple of original ones way back when. According to Woj, that tag or dab was put somewhere on the Black sleeve as shown in the picture below.

My understanding is that 1970's had a totally different ID setup.

If anybody can shed some light on this we would be most appreciative.
