The ring and pinion in my orange 69 Yenko Camaro was also dated from 1967 as I understand it the first batch of ring and pinions were dated wrong.
Here is a picture of my L78 conv vent but it was a Kansas built car

Default oil pressure sending unit
Here are pics of my original sending unit from my 06c Baltimore built SS convertible. This is a gauge car. Note the original black paint and the date code.

Did you coat the brake calipers and steering box with anything?
They look good.

Mine has the plastic gas tank vent

1969 Chevelle Assembly manual page 148 shows the plastic vent as "tank-fuel vent surge"

My 1969 Assembly manual only shows the set up with the plastic vent

I only have a 1969 Assembly manual so I'm not sure about other years. It only shows the set up with the plastic vent.

I'm not sure if there was a late design change or something not shown in the 69 manual?
