Hi Michael - there is no casting detail giving the year of manufacture - the machining date which would be very close to the manufacture date is stamped on the flange at the bottom of the block which the sump attaches to and covers - so I don't have those details.
Having said that and going by the casting dates (mm/dd) some where obviously cast in 1940 and used in 1941.
