Neither UL markings nor stackup markings are IPC requirements. Again go to 6012D section 3.3.5; its outlined there.

It doesn't necessarily have to be. Fabrication drawing notes, and notes on the assembly drawing normally take precedence over industry standards, as they are product-specific.
The fab drawing and the assembly drawing are the "Bible" thou shalt go by if there is a conflict. The exception to the order of precedence is generally something in the contract.

Dell - Internal Use - Confidential

Is this statement supported (referenced) in an IPC/Industry Standard?

We deal with power boards and sealing surfaces. The note I've had success with is:

SUPPLIER SHALL MARK STACKUP AND DATE CODE, SUPPLIER NAME AND/OR TRADEMARK, AND UL FLAMMABILITY RATING IN NON-CONDUCTIVE INDELIBLE INK (COLOR WHITE OR BLACK). SUPPLIER SHALL NOT ADD ANY TEXT OR MARKING IN COPPER.

Silk screen (or etched metal) are acceptable forms of marking.
Requirements for marking are basically legibility and traceability
(you basically have to be able to match the conformance coupons to the
boards they represent), by some method of serialization, which shall
include date code. UL marking is not an IPC requirement, if required
the board user must specify it. When using etched metal as marking, it
shall not violate min spacing to board conductors (same with
conductive inks). See 6012D 3.3.5 and its subsections.

Fellow TechNetters:

IPC-1066 covers Lead free markings/Symbols/:Labels, etc.   Which IPC
Standard covers bare board vendor logo/UL Rating/markings/production
date/REV and layer counts.   Is silk screening printing of information
acceptable beside etch from original external copper foil.
