Way back on the teaser site for the 2010 camaro at chevy, there was a video that explained that the mailslot was going to be on the 1st gen, but they couldn't get it to work(plastics make it possible?). Can't find anything to prove it though. Think maybe it was just Chevy trying to justify putting it on. Would be interesting if the 2010 got something that the '67 should've had, but didn't.

While the 4th gens weren't functional(except for the later model SS, which was actually SLP's hood), its not that hard to see they were inspired by the 3rd gen Z28's scoops - which were functional...and ruined my dad's motor when it tried to compress some rainwater that got into it. That might be a good reason why they made the 4th gen's cosmetic.
