Default BB water pump decode help

I got this pump with some other parts. Can anyone help decode the numbers? It's freshly rebuilt and I will be selling it once I know what forum to put it on.
Thanks
Mike

Google the part number. Third pic is the date code; fourth is the mold number.

Thanks Mike. Tried the #... Didn't get anything. I guess I have to dig a little more. Is there a site for vintage part numbers?
