Default C8 12 cab Data Plate help

Hi all,
Could anyone possible tell me what data plate is missing on this engine cover, just below the gear shift plate please. (not the red square, I borrowed this photo from an earlier post)
My C8 also has the same holes where a plate is missing.
Cheers
Darren

I believe it would be a vehicle model plate

Thanks Jordan,
Would anyone happen to have a spare or one they don't require?
Regards
Darren

I don't think it's the model plate. I think it's alternate pre-drilled holes (factory) for the larger shift plate for 4x4 models that include the transfer case shift pattern.

Thanks Tony, that makes sense, the lower holes do line up perfectly.
