My Engine case | 356 Speedster, 550 Spyder, Replica, Automotive Community

WildBill

I went to the local VW aircooled shop and was telling him about my single relief case. He told me to get him any numbers from it I could.
I found it to be Brazilian.
Numbers look like this:
2BR VW Brazil
19 OOOO 000.101.1022
AS 21
The 4 O's after the 19 have a line thru the middle of them. Sorta looks like AUDI's symbol with the line thru the middle.
Any ideas?
I must have some kinda antique collectors item! My Luck

Does the engine case have numbers below the generator/alternator pedestal? The first 2 digits should be designated with letters, This information should be able to tell your mechanic what year your engine case is. But for the most part, single-relief cases were used by VW till 1970 (1500cc) In 1971, with the introduction of the 1600cc, came the dual relief cases and the dog house shroud.

That's the 1st place I looked and found nothing. The case was painted
black so I may get my wire toothbrush and see if they were painted over
