CA Confirming a S8 Tranny?

Hi

I have found a good deal from a local shop for a Series 8 (99spec) Transmission but i wanted to see if somebody could help me confirm that it is a series 8. I took 2 pics of the tags on the tranny but i wasn't able to confirm it myself by searching. The shop says it was pulled form a 99 spec motor

The tag says "FS 0464"


The tag says "KEN FD3"


Thank you

Only a tiny sample size I've used, but if you look for the circular casting marks on the rhs, I think there is an indication of year and month, the case was made at the foundry.

The coloured writing in the second set of pics, appears universal in the wrecker world!!

Not sure when it was introduced, there's one less switch on the extension housing too, which will inform if it's beyond S6 at least.
