On an OM617 the serial number is stamped on the block just below the head on the left rear. That would put it just beside the oil filter assembly if memory serves me correctly. If the engine is a factory rebuild, there is a metal plate that’s affixed to the front timing cover/block by the vacuum pump.
I looked up an 85 300TD and Bosch only shows one part, an SR70X (remanufactured). https://www.boschautoparts.com/en/auto/alternators-and-starters/remanufactured-starters?partId=SR70X -D > On Jan 1, 2018, at 5:18 PM, Andrew Strasfogel <[email protected]> wrote: > > Thanks!
