Default Where do these engine decals go?

I have acquired a set of C7 engine decals and am not sure exactly where some of the decals would go. The set on the left obviously goes on the plenum cover, but the larger decals on the right have me stumped. These are really good quality decals and I am sure that properly applied they would look nice. I just can't figure where they are to be applied. Any assistance is appreciated...

Now that I think of it, I am wondering if they sent me decals for the Z51 "dry sump" engine. I do not have the Z51 version...

all those stickers go on the plenum and valve covers, and part below the valve cover.. no z51 connection. Good luck, long term, stickers may fail and get dirty, you cant clean..

The reason I am thinking the decals are for the Z51 car is this picture I took of left and right sides of my C7 engine. None of the cutouts of the larger stickers seem to match...

my bad, I think you are right due to the oil fill hole. these parts are rough surface and not total smooth, hence my reluctance to use long term...

You may be correct. Here is a Z51 engine:

^^^^ This, but if you decide to put them on, the decals on the left hand side of your picture go on the plenum cover and the others go on the lower fuel rails.
