Fuel door catch question

[preS]

I am trying to figure out what came first. If your 65-68 has its original front left fender with fuel door could you please post your vin (or most of it) and tell me whether the catch is all metal




Or has a slot



Also in case you have a 356 C/SC can you check for a slot?

Thanks

Here is a shot of mine, #301111. A '65. Has slot. But no hole.

Just outside what you are asking for:
This is a late 63 B Reutter CAB

No hole in the middle

Thank you both for your input.

I tend to believe that what I mistakenly labeled slot instead of hole was introduced sometime after John’s vin (and after 301850) but before November 65 (mine 912). Maybe a my66 change? Also the replacement part you can buy today is with a hole (which therefore rhymes as a later change?).

P.s. the difference between a 356 and early 911/2 are the ears. It won’t fit in a 900 series.
