Should one assume it is a fake as the badge reads "6.0", while photos appear indicate it has a 5.6 in it?

Requires further inspection but it could be a SOHC 6L.

Owner conceded when this was discussed on BW the 6.0 badge may be for "cosmetic" sake, however I marvel at the lucky find of an OEM 6.0 badge (off BHMA/Westmont catalog?).
