Didn't take a real good look but I am curious if these could be factory? Also how many trucks got authentic shoulder belts?

Re: Chances these are factory shoulder belts?
 

Those are not. Factory belts are one of the rarest options.

Been collecting these trucks since 1976 and have never seen a shoulder belt

Just learned something today. Always wondered why there were a place to fasten the shoulder seat belt but always had a plug in that location of the cab.

Here's a picture of some I found in a 72 Blazer. The rears were cut off at the sleeve/boot at the top! Dated October or November 1971. Now in my 69.
