Correct Julian Date for Dec. '69 W-30 Waterpump

I need to source a replacement water pump for our Dec. '69 built, '70 W-30. What would be a correct Julian date for this time frame of build?

Thanks, Dave Moon

Typical is about 30 days prior to the build date, but up to 90 days prior is not unheard of. What's the date code on the cowl tag?

The cowl tag is 12A, build date on the broadcast card is Dec. 3, 1969

So something around 307-325 would be ideal (first three weeks of Nov) but as early as 244 (Sept 1) would not be unheard of.
