Default Heater box differences between years

Gents, 300 miles later after the restoration, the only part which wasn't replaced gave in : the heater core.
Today I got my heater box out but the plate covering the heater core and the footwell duct are glued, probably by a overexcited previous owner. There's no way I'll get the core out without breaking the box. I'ts a 74 with Ac and I'm now looking for a second hand box a footwell duct. What years would fit? 77-82 is different, 68 is different but are there any other years that differ?
Thanks,
Nick
This is the assy I'm looking for bar the core, already have a replacement.

I may have one for you. I took mine out after I removed AC and am in the middle of a rest-mod. I plan on getting the small basic box to save room. Mine SHOULD be a '76 (Long story).

...I'm dead tired after working 12 hrs today, or I'd go take a look for any numbers and take a pic for you.

EDIT - my tired brain might be thinking of the other side to that. I have the engine bay side of the heater box.
