Bob, like I said, I don't know anything about pre '66 cars, so I'm just saying that it "appears" to have been machined and that I have never heard of any factory decking process other than broaching. I've posted the question on a private site that I am a member of for John H. or Art A. to respond to and will post their replies. Maybe we'll learn something new

Cool...pick their brain on 409's...see if there was a different method ...all the examples I've seen are like the above...keep the Vette guys by your place and entertain them.
