It's hard to see, but I had the same style of thicker chrome nut found on the PVC cap as the one pictured in your magazine photo. My 65 barracuda was built in LA as well!

Thanks for the picture. What a nice engine compartment! Is that the factory air cleaner decal? If so, could you please shoot me a photo of it?
It seems that alot of cars has this bigger nut. I know for sure that the PCV valve nut for the 2 barrel engines had the stamped PAL nut. Maybe that the assembly line workers went out of the bigger nuts so they just took the smaller PAL nut instead to keep the production running!
After going through some picture this is what I came up with.
BTW, does anyone have a bigger nut for sale?
