Try a Sharpie permanent Marker. They work very well and have a nice wide, firm tip.

Block Print
On cast in raised letters I've had the best luck with a rubber roller that artists use when block printing. Which, for you non-artists, is when you carve a flat piece of wood into a scene or patern or whatever and then coat the raised parts with paint and then appyl the block to paper and it will "print" a copy of the wood cut. They come in various sizes (lengths) for different prints and can be obtained at most local artists suppy stores. This is exactly what they are made for. But a little advise, go light and even when coating the roller and you will very hapy with the results.
