Default please help ID these valve covers

I know they are Cleveland valve covers. When I purchased them a while back the guy thought they might have been 70 BOSS valve covers due to them not having the drip rails. There are castings in place as you can see for drip rails but they were never drilled and tapped. There is a part number P-N 7214. Can anyone tell me anything about these? I have a feeling Jim will know[8D]

Those look like Cleveland valve covers. My valve covers look almost exactly like those, and mine are missing the 351 Cleveland on them too. Maybe aftermarket or OEM replacement?

Did the factory aluminum 351C valve covers actually read "Cleveland" on them?
They look like they could be factory pieces to me...

They look aftermarket. My old 351C came with original stamped steel, painted to match the block.
