I would say this one but I have no idea if it will corrode or not
There are nice looking repro caps for other brands on the market that the spring rusts off in a year
That's why I bought NOS for my 65 SS because sometimes correct looking parts are only good for cars pushed on and off a trailer

+1 On the version/style for your application though we've seen a couple of "east coast style" pop up from time to time that repo is the typical one
