Ok, just to make sure I have this straight (because I previously thought I did);

1970 Formula aircleaner decals:

RR = L74 (RAIII) Van Nuys & Norwood.

RO = L78 (400/4bbl) Van Nuys; air cleaner assembly with vent hole - possibly used on some Norwood cars - but the carb vent hole plugged.

RM = L78 (400/4bbl) Norwood; air cleaner assembly without vent hole.

I previously only recall reading about RR & RM decals, and had thought the decal was about the air cleaner configuration, and had no bearing on plant, or presence/absence of the 70-CA vent hole ect.
I do not recall reading about this RO decal!
