Yes - every GM plant would have a shipping location, but not all (if any others) would be designated "Plant 16". The plant numbering system is specific to each facility and springs up based on the sequence that the buildings were built or placed in service. My dad worked at Chevrolet Pressed Metal, in downtown Flint. Some of the plants I remember him referring to were Plant 38, Plant 10, Plant 2, Plant 2A, etc. Flint Assembly, where I started some 31 years ago, had a separate shipping building but if it had a number associated with it I don't recall what it was.
As such, we can definitively state that the photo you linked was taken in Pontiac (as opposed to Fremont or any other assembly plant).
