I looked up part #s for 70-74 and came up with the following-

70 - 3441034
71 - 3441884
72 to 7/73 - 3502346
after 7/73 - 3502723

The first 3 #s if I'm not mistaken, are all variations of the red/black bakelite unit, and the last is the metal valve.
From what I've heard the bakelite unit was prone to leaking so it was replaced by the metal one.
So I think that's why we are sometimes seeing the metal valves on the earlier cars.
I took a metal valve off of a 70 318 Challenger back in the early 90s myself.

Is it possible that the aftermarket started producing metal valves in 1970-71-72?
