Re: [OM] Age of a black Om1 body

Pull off the pressure plate and you'll find the production code, a Japanese
symbol or number (factory name) followed by 2 numbers,. First digit is month
of production, 1-9.  10, 11, and 12 are represented with  X, Y and Z. ,
Second digit is year of production. Ex.: X6 is October 1976.
