Default Factory WS6 Hood??

Does the factory WS6 hood have any identifying marks or things about it? I ask because the hood on our 99 WS6 has a sticker inside the scoop when looking from under the hood (as though you were looking from the air filter's point of view) I cant remember the exact name, but It was polywheels or poly----- something sticker in there. Also, should there be insulation on the underside of the hood?...Or a gasket or anything at the opening in the rear of the Ram Air on the hood? Thanks.

For a brief time Polywheels made the GM hoods from what I understand, I remember seeing one in the engineering office there. I tried to get it as a spare, but no go.

They are located in Oakville Ontario and make a number of OEM parts.
