1973 TCS Solenoid Question

[Jimmy P.]

The TCS Solenoid on my L48 M20 April 30th car has the correct part # stamped in front as called out in the TIM&JG. DR1997410. However the plastic filter cover is black plastic not white as all of the original solenoids I've seen on the 73 & 74. Could mine be a Service Replacement?
Mine is in the first photo below with the arrows pointing to the screen/ filter areas. The second photo is the front of mine with part number. Third photo is an example showing the white plastic cover.
Need your help on this one too Joe L.
Thanks,

[Harmon C.]

For what it's worth I have never seen a black cover even at swap meets.

Thanks Lyle,
I just found this one for sale on eBay. Listed for a 73-74 Corvette & Chevelle.This is exactly what mine looks like. If it is a SR, it's a pretty early one. Mine appears to have been on the car for a very long time.
