Ive yet to see one with the fabled paint codes.
OK...look at the camshaft front bearing, the shoulder immediately rearwards of the bearing journal will have a letter and number engraved in the edge, a clean with scotchbrite may help.
The letter is the cam type refered to in Marks link, the number is a batch or grinding machine number.

Mark:  remind me to take a photo of this when we visit M.K.
