Howdy!
We had the following question come up.
Can you use Mark of Heaven's Favor on a Clan holding?
It is my understanding that you cannot use Mark of Heaven's Favor on Clan holdings since there is no positive numeral on them. They have been reprinted with new text for 20F but haven't been updated in Oracle.
Shinomen Marsh: This holding has -1GP if you are not Spider Clan Mark of Heaven's Favor: A Holding may only be targeted by one Mark of Heaven's Favor per game. Air Open, w: Permanently increase a positive numeral on a target Holding by one (2 is a numeral, two is not). Remove this Spell from the game.

The gold production in the top right of the card is a positive numeral on the card. You may increase it.
