Default Original Battery Caps - Can you ID these?

Guys,

I was digging through some cigar boxes of old parts today and ran across the following battery caps. I seem to recall reading somewhere over the years that Model A's used either the ones with embossed script or raised script, and that the Early V8's used the other, but I haven't been able to locate any info online (or in print) to help identify them. Can anybody here positively ID and date any of these?

Thanks!
Deron


These look to have had some sort of raised vent that's been broken off:






These have an embossed script:







Raised script and thick head:







Different raised script, also with thick head:









Raised script with thin head:







And just for honorable mention, can anyone verify if this is Model A? The hole spacing is the same as the original 26/27 Model T battery that I have but I don't know if it's the same as Model A.
