its right on the bottom,not the rear cover but the rear houseing.Its on the 1/2 inch flange where the gasket goes.Its really hard to find with years of gunk and rust.I only found mine because I was cleaning it off the car.useing a die grinde with the scotchbrite type pads on it.

Well I found what looks to be LRW 328

it looks to be 328 ?? I can see the 3 plainly but the other 2 numbers look like they were stamped by a drunken monkey
