    C3: Date code on 1973 L82 cylinder head

    I can't figure out what that first letter is on my 1973 L82 cylinder head.
    Car has an H15 build date and block is C 7 3, so I believe that letter should be an A or B.
    Can anyone help? Please see pic link
    Thanks in advance
    Chris

        Ah, the date code emboss! Well, it IS fuzzy and indistinct, but that's not uncommon for cast letters/numbers. More light would help as well as shots from slightly different angles with the valve cover removed.

        Might be a fuzzy 'G' or 'C' from what I can see in this 'through the hole' pix...
