According to Mercedes-Benz Production Models Book 1946-1990 by W. Robert Nitske, published by Motorbooks International, ISBN 0-87938-190-6, page 176 lists 1980 production of 300CD models at 1,770 units. It is stated on that page that the diesel engined coupes were built expressly for sales in the North American market.

Here's a nice little PDF with the production figures.
I think the 300TD is a OM617, but the rest might be right. Hopefully.

um, yes, if it is an original turbo equipped engine, it is an OM617, without a turbo, OM616

I notice that they list a production figure of 1078 units for 1977 model year?? I thought that 1978 was the first year of the 300CD? Or was it available in 77, just not in USA?
