Here's a Maple Leaf hood. That's the only kind of emblem I've seen on them. It was GMC that had General Motors Truck on the hood.

GMCs had 'GENERAL MOTORS TRUCK' on the engine cover/hood/bonnet sides and MLs had 'MAPLE LEAF [Maple Leaf symbol] TRUCK' as they were essentially Chevrolet powertrain GMCs, all the way through, with slight differences such as grilles. However, I can bet that so many lacked the badging when exported.

I have a 1940 manual and it treats the Maple Leaf as it's own make. It was only available in a 2 1/2 or three ton model in 1940. My manual shows a 216 Chevrolet engine in the 2 1/2 ton (model 1600) and a GMC 248 in the three ton (model 1600H).
