Those are '66 nailhead valve covers.  They have the angles PCV valve hole on the pass cover, and the drivers cover has the divot in the front corner to clear the A.I.R. pump for '66 CA cars as well as the extra hole in to top for the crankcase vent line to go from the valve cover to the air cleaner on a CA car.
