You probably mean the number plate lamp from a 55-56
as the pope's nose lamp is VERY Rare...
the brake lamp was in the popes nose along with the number plate lamp, as the round tail lamps were only tail lamps..
The number plate lamp used to glow red... [brakes]
that's why it was called a pope's nose...
[similar to rudolf the red nosed reindeer... lol
LEE
the oval tail lamps have the stop lamps in them..

There is a slight variation in popes noses & W-decks. Some W-decks have a ridge in them where the light goes and the licence lights have a
matching cutout. Other W-decks have the normal gentle curvature and the licence lights don't have a cutout - similar to the 58-62 licence lights.
Just make sure that your W-deck and licence light match.
Bugboy will sort you out with the right bits.
