Not on any originals I have. That goes for the 68/69 ones as well as the 70 chrome ones... Some repros awhile back had part numbers...but some repros don't... Here's the back of a real deal 68/69. (One pin is broken off.)

Here's an NOS 70 Chrome emblem with the foam adhesive tape on the back, no pins, no part #s.

Was the Yenko stock numbers
( door jam numbers on the tag )
assigned to a car:
...When the car was ordered from chevrolet?
...or when the conversion took place?
....or is there another answer?

It could take a month or more to get a booking for a steamship line...
