David,

Thanks for the info, would agree that it appears the body is logically of 'April' manufacture but a bit confused regarding the reply on casting numbers.

I am pretty sure there are no other casting numbers on the offside of the block other than those mentioned. The 'GM' with the '839253' below it are roughly mid way along the block with the '104' towards the front . The casting of the '104' is very clear and prominent and there is most certainly nothing else adjacent to it, what more would you have expected?
