Not exactly sure what IHE has there, but the NOS Dator-lite hood I had a mold lifted from, is in grey gel-coat. It's the only NOS Deere hood I've seen like that, so there certainly could be others. Maybe it was a "second" and not painted or such.

Joe, you hit the nail on the head with the surface of it being in grey gel-coat. There is a grease pencil number on it also. I will check out what it is in after dinner. Nick, I've searched, but haven't found what the JQ9614 number is yet. I think you're right about it being an internal part number. Where I work, we have a lot if internal part and sub-assembly number for things before they get sent out.
I remember a discussion about the secondary helixes. If I remember correctly the part number on them is the casting part number, which does not show up in the part catalog.

Well, I will probably put it up on Ebay. I also noticed that all holes are already drilled on this except the ones for the block off plate that goes over the vent at the base of the windshield.
