The later fenders have a recess stamping just above where the inner fender bolts to the fender (in engine compartment).Perhaps someone can post a pic of difference.

The Drivers fender will be missing the washer bottle mount tab on the inside under the hood. So the washer bottle will be missing, Also along with the indent on the passenger fender there are numerous holes near the battery cable ground body strap area. Also oem passenger fenders have 2 holes where the indent is to provide mounting for the A/C hose bracket for a A\C car. This car has numerous issues with incorrect and missing original parts. I dont want to bash this car. It does look like a very nice car for the Asking price.

and into 1974 as service replacements for '74s. Correct, I have never seen a 1973 Camaro with an indent fender. But I have seen some 1974s with the area completely cut out. That is what the indent was for on the later replacement fender - a template - for a planned ducting system. These are both 1974 survivor cars that happen to have the cut-out from factory.

1975 and 1976 Camaro’s ducted the air cleaner intake to this opening. I’ve heard it was emissions related as the air temperature is cooler and more stable there than the engine bay area underhood.

Yes it was originally planned for '74 but didn't happen. But some later 1974s did get the cut-out. Here is a '75
