This came from two respected people in the business if you could ask your connections at pennzoil if this is something new and post your findings that would be great..
Just had communication with a contact at Shell this morning. As of right now, Mobil is the factory fill for General Motors. Here is the email communication I had.

I know we are doing a lot of research with GM but there's
no word of any new factory fill business. We took Mopar from Mobil and
GM is in our sights but nothing yet.
Hope you and Donna are doing well!

Bob,
Have you heard anything about Pennzoil being the "new" factory fill at
GM and especially for the Corvette?
I hope all is well with you and your family and that winter has not
been as hard on you as it has been on me.
All the best,
Johnny
