My '65 GTO uses a radiator with plugs: the part number and broadcast code on the radiator match the build sheet found above the gas tank, so it's original.

That is true, but usually the tendency is for the production part to be more specific (a more correct application) and the service part to be more generic: one part covering more applications so that fewer part numbers have to be stocked for service.
