Default Quadrajet ID number question

Okay, I’ve had this Q-jet lying around that my dad was once running on his (now my) 67 GTO. I’m a bit confused as to the ID number. It says on the body 7040263 which translates to a Pontiac, 70 model year unit for a manual transmission.

Here’s where I get confused. There’s no plant code and, what I assume to be the Julian date says 3426.

Do you think that this is a re stamped carb?

Service replacement units (produced after the model run) did not have picking (plant) codes (no need for them).

The 342nd day of 1976 would certainly qualify as a service replacement unit.
