The first reference I found (on a cursory search) to the 261 is for installation in the 6000 series in 1956. I suppose it could mave been used outside the US before inside but ....

You are probably on the money ,as usual..
I had a '56 Canadian built Pontiac Laurentian with the original 261 Engine in it ..I bought it in '64 in Saskatchewan so know I was the 2nd owner..
Same colour and identical to one shown here..
Wish I still had it..
