I found this in the book

Chevelle SS Restoration Guide, 1964-1972
By Paul A. Herd
page 123

"However, in 1969 an emblem that read Chevelle by Chevrolet, part number 8701218, was positioned on the right-hand side of the deck lid. A 1969 deck lid with therefore not interchange with a 1968 deck lid because of the predrilled holes for the emblem, but a 1968 deck lid can be fitted to a 1969 Chevelle."

Maybe researching the emblem number for 1969 can end in you ultimately finding the part for the 1968 and finding out about the drilled holes and where your deck lid came from.
