Both the master and cap look to be originals.  If you remove the clamp you can confirm there are vent holes as shown in the posted Dave Wise image.

@schlett7nu1 I have a few oddball MCs in a brake parts bin. I'll check them tomorrow when I'm in my shop. If I find one, you're certainly welcome to it.

For Reference here's an NOS master cylinder from my parts stash

In the original box never installed for 1970 models with 4-wheel drum brakes

Correct Bendix master cylinder with cast # 2225601 on bottom and Chrysler part #2808577 on box

Original lid - with hold down clamp in place and removed
Note lid has the vent holes

Another way to ID an original lid that Dave Wise does not point out in his guide. The originals have 2 square corners and 2 rounded corners opposite of each side

Very nice NOS master. It confirms the features and more. Very helpful. I noticed TheRamMan is reproducing caps. His appear to have all the correct features.

also notice the difference in hold down brackets  :rubeyes:

@C_B5 I have a master cylinder with that hold down & it is stamped "MADE IN CANADA" on the bottom
