Looks real to me and I have seen thousands of stamps. I have seen different fonts on a lot of starters and alternators so it isn't all that unusual. Not only have I seen different fonts, but also double stamps, and on some the stamping depth is not always uniform, meaning some letters or numbers are light and some are deep.I also have an OE delco starter case with no numbers on it, only the Delco - Remy USA stamped on it. I don't stamp units, but maybe some day I will sell to someone who wants to make one of the unobtainable starters themselves. My starter alternator generator repair shop was located 2 buildings away from the company that made some of the stamps sourced for OE stamping. They may still make the stamps, but I'm not sure.
