I thought all 69 Camaro used the fingernail sized bump out on the inside rear of the driver side cover, to accommodate the drippers. The only difference being the location of the spark wire tower, just ahead of the aft hold down bolt for Camaro, and further forward for the Chevelle.

Is that not correct?

Those are 1970 production valve covers in the 1st post...
Since 1969 Camaro production was extended, wouldn't a very late built 69 Camaro use 1970 production valve covers since production on the other 1970 models already began.

I wish I had a dollar for every time I see guys posting what they think they have are 1969 Camaro Valve covers just because of the location of the plug wire stand on the drivers side. Here is the difference between the 69 Camaro drivers side & the 1970 Only Chevelle & Nova drivers side, the flat spot on the lower rear corner. This photo is 1970 only & has the same plug wire stand as the 69 Camaro.
