What Stamp Is This?

If somebody could tell me what stamp he uses that would be great.

I don't see anything that say's "stamp" to me. There are some spots at the top of the photo that look a lot like a diamond shaped shader, but in the outlined area, the lines are pretty continuous. It may have started out with a stamp of some sort, but most likely, that was created with modeling tools, perhaps a stylus. There's also the possibility it was done with a piece of wood to get the grain lines, or possibly stamped with wood and followed with a modeling tool. Third possibility is it's a homemade stamp, completely custom.....there are a few of us here that dabble in tool creation to have our own unique designs.

How about a steel or wood chisel. I used a small flat headed screwdriver

to do the groves on engine piston i am doing for a belt.
