Aluminum engine lid

My '72S (early build #027*) has an aluminum engine lid and license plate panel - are these original or retrofitted?

What was the last chassis number Porsche stopped putting an aluminum lid on?

Did early build '72S cars get some 2.2S part leftovers?

Don't know the answer, but start here:

Pet shows aluminum engine lid through '73, and that's the way I remember it. No serial # or date cutoff shown.
