Pretty sure an extra digit sneaked into those part numbers!
In clarification for the original questioner and anybody who later reads this thread, MB part numbers almost always contain 10 digits in the
XXX XXX XX XX format.
Occasionally there will be a letter preceding the 10 digit number(an "R" on the original #14 cylinder heads) and even once in a while an extra digit or two (sometimes in parenthesis) that's mostly on older marked parts though.
So there would be no
014,
022 or
0XX on any casting the original questioner or anybody else looking for that particular info, will find.
