Default 68 gauage cover

Today as I went through a warehouse of corvette parts I found a gauge face that I hope is the correct one for my 68 .it is flat on surface and on back side is the # 6480851 .
Any one know
Thanks

That might be a mold # and may not correspond to the actual part#. Smooth surface would lead you to believe that it is a 68 one and whether or not it has the wiper override light can tell you 68E or 68L. Pics would be nice.

All 68 center bezels had smooth finishes. The tell-tales changed a bit as the model year progressed.
