Ron,
>From that photo, the NPD part looks like a
pretty good repro.  Your shop note(?) is from
1963.  The part was probably put into production for all cars after that.  In
my "How
to Rebuild Your Small Block Ford" book by
Monroe there are several good pictures of
Ford engines with the part including at least
a 2bbl 289 and a Hipo.  It looks mounted
at the top center under the water pump bolt
just like your photo.  Wouldn't be on any
Tiger since our line comes up way over on
the passenger side.
