well, AFAIK, they haven't stopped "giving out" build sheets. for the last several years people have been able to pay $50 and buy them. you may want to doublecheck on that
as for an aluminum hood, assuming it is original, it may have been a special COPO order for racing. you'd need to verify that with some of our more knowledgeable members like @BA. and @62BillT
as for the 63 vs 64 hood, they are notated in the Hollander cross-reference as completely different, so unless they swapped fenders, bumpers, and everything else that would have been needed to be swapped....conclusion is... it's either COPO, a 'one-off' as you suggested, or an aftermarket
so I don't see how a long gone '63 owners manual will help us out here
