Or, would the base Camaro be called an SS with the next bump up being the SS/RS again w/ the top being Z28?

I think the person to ask to answer the main question is right here....GMPowertrain.

Is it necessary to have one engine for an auto and another V8 for a manual? I'm not asking what's going into the Camaro...you're sworn to secrecy. But, could you shed some light on this?
When was the Z28 ever top dog? When they didn't have a camaro SS for a few of the generations Z28 was top dog but when the SS camaro was offered it was the top dog.
