I really can't tell from your photos, but I believe that style hood (82-84?) didn't come with louvers.

Edit: The holes are covered by small garnish covers.

Yup that is a Z28 hood from an 82-84 camaro. Neither the louvers or the blisters will fit that hood without a bunch of body work. Really sucks for you too since that paint looks to be a nice custom job.
