I don`t know on the Euro, by my 85 has a silver plate rivited to the drivers side "B" piller. there will be a stamp something like 9/84 or something like that. that is the build date.

While it is out is a good time to replace the rubber sleve and center support bearing and rubber part. also check the "U" joint for any slop.

I just had the one in the 240 done, "U" joint, center support and the centering sleves in each end of the shafts, and all balanced. $300.

Not sure on any marks on the shafts for alignment.
