They are only used on 03+ Super chargers, having two plates stuck on top of each other doesn't sound right at all. Probably a non AMG car perhaps.

You folks do realise that the name plates are just randomly stuck on at the end of its production? I came across a CL55 AMG komp that had two differently named badges stuck on top of each other. Best guess that it failed Quality Control towards the end of the production line and was put back for "correction" .
do you know they're stuck on randomly for sure? Or was it a joke, or idea based upon having two stuck on?
I don't think the "one man one engine" thing improves the engine, it's performance, or reliability in any way. It's just a nice touch.
I suspect that in the early days it was sensible way of producing the engines for whatever reason, and so they decided to market it as it added to the special feel of the product, and makes it feel a bit more premium.
If you buy a bespoke suit from a traditional tailor, you know the tailor's name, and probably meet him or her too. Well AMG have recreated that feeling.
Here's mine;

Mine was handcrafted by Goeslieke Fuch.
