The "Chevrolet" letters are built into the stamping die, so in my opinion, what you describe would be very unlikely to have came from the factory. Is it possible that someone had filled in the stamped area at some point in the past? Have you checked the dash on the backside to see if you can feel the stamped indentions? Possibly use a mirror and flashlight and or using your hand you can verify that it was never stamped?
