I don't think they have a date code other than C3 or C4.
Probably either would be correct.
From what I have found the "J" heads date this as a 64 1/2 engine
let me know if you want to sell one.
thanks

I don't need the blue C3 one.Timing pointer is a bit different than my other C3 cover..Needs a good cleaning but I don't see any stripped or damaged holes.Was on a CJ I am doing so I yanked it off and put a C8 cover on it..

Cory my zip is 25177 I'm in WV.
if you don't mind check to see what shipping would be
I have one coming from another member and I'll look it over.
If it doesn't work out I'll get back with you.
Chances are I still may take it depending on shipping charges.

Thanks
