TA Valve Cover Again

[VCODE]

Which Drivers side (left Side) valve cover is correct for a 70 Challenger TA 340-6
I see that it has been gone over and over but the pictures are no longer available.
1) You can see the wire loom stand is in a different location 2) The stand has a different shape were plastic holder attaches 3) and one stand has a hole in it.
Thanks Bob

The bare metal one in your picture has the correct location for an AAR T/A

Alan, not so fast. Did you ever see the shape of the stand on top like that and with a hole in it.

I'm going to disagree, partially, with anlauto.  The bare metal one is a later 1973 vintage small block valve cover (part 3671372).  The position of the wire loom stand is correct for TA/AAR but the stand itself is incorrect.  That one has been bent upright and straightened.  The notches along the top portion and hole are incorrect and the stand is about 1/4" shorter than the taller TA/AAR stand.

Here are some pics of an NOS 3671372 that was converted to be correct for my T/A.  I fabbed a part and Resto Rick did the welding.  The orange cover in the background is a original off a T/A.  The grey primer cover is from a 340 4-bbl.

"Floyd" Bruce, I knew something was wrong I just could not pin point it like you did.
Thanks Bob

Just coming back to this thread...Corrected my above statement....I was referring to the location only, honestly I've never noted the details of the stand itself before... thank you Floyd....I enjoy learning new stuff 

I'm in the market for 71 340 valve covers, not concerned to much about the little details, if you have any for sale

here is another example of my TA vs 340 valve covers
