Stock Water Pump??

So I thought my '82 was matching, but looking at this water pump, i am guessing its not. Anyone know about this pump? Its stamped PH406(?) Not finding a whole lot on it.

Thanks!

So, you are pondering over "matching numbers" on an '82 water pump????

lol. Not really. In the process of rebuilding the engine and wanted to clean up, paint and maybe rebuild the pump while it was torn apart. Was just suprised I didn't see the GM stamp, not sure worth the squeeze of rebuilding an aftermarket when new pumps are inexpensive, or if I can even find a kit for it.

Just so we are all on your page.
What year do you consider is the break point that no one should look for "matching numbers"?
Good grief.
