Default 1964 L76 327/365 hp cooling fan?

I have an aftermarket fan which has bends at the tips for what looks like a better performing function than original. I'd like to find an OEM, but I'm unsure of what is correct for the L76 without AC. I know the ones with AC are different. And browsing for sale listings, I've seen some with only "H" on the face attached to the clutch, then others with an H and a W on the other side, then I've seen some with H, W, and FRONT with 27 on blade. DIA is around 17" to 17.5".

Unfortunately, I don't know how to tell which is correct for my engine. The AIM only goes so far, and there are no part #'s on the fans that I can tell. Anyone know for sure?

Thanks, I didn't consider the shape of the rivets. [EDIT: answered in link "Any variation in early vs late for model year 1964 for early production in 1963?"]

Hmm, interesting, it's not an aftermarket fan. Looks exactly like this:

The car was slalom raced in Arizona, so maybe someone installed the 7 blade AC fan with the bent tips for extra cooling.
