That was my opinion looking at the very first picture, too. The photos you added also make a better case for this.
Also, if you look at the "7" in the two pics, they do not appear to be stamped from the same font. You can see in his own bike that the "7" on the engine case does not match the style that are stamped into the cylinders.

The 6 and the 8 don't match the font that is on the cans either. If you look on the case the 6 looks more like an upside down 9 (the gap between the bottom of the 6 and the top loop are different than the ones on the cans. Also the 8 on the case has the same size upper and lower loops where as the cans have two different size loops in its 8s. Could it be they don't match because the cans were made one place and the case in another? But granted it does look like it was ground down and restamped to sell hot bike/engine or parts.
