Is this cylinder head correct for a 1969 CT70 silver tag?

I am starting a restoration and read where the 69's silver tags have a diamond and lines. This one doesn't it, but it may have been replaced. Thanks for any advice. More questions to follow...

I don't think anyone has really good info on the head stampings. But the diamond/lines stamp is widely accepted as a silvertag CT70 part... Up to 4 lines I think I've seen. The M1-2-3 stamps always make me think...very early CT70 too. The stamp on your part strikes me as mid/late 70's. But again, it's little more than a guess.

 

[69ST]

The documented STs I've seen all had the diamond and lines. I've gone through a couple of K3 engines in the past year, both had the E10-marked casting, got a K0 in the queue with an E7 casting. If the nomenclature is sequential, as it appears to be, then E3 corresponds to an early K0 - black tag era.

Thank you both for the comments. Are "diamond' heads difficult to come by?

Is this "HM-B4" cylinder correct for the '69 ST?

Have a silver tag head I'd sell, check your PM's for info.

Not for you I spose Typically, I'd say yes. They ARE pretty uncommon to find, in decent condition, and not on a engine.
