I have not confirmed the later V8 stuff--yet, years ago when I was rebuilding generators for resale I didn't worry about this, and only noticed some dates on armatures

on model A generators I have confirmed by armature dates on original ones--

H-27 the month is the # 1-12, 1 jan, 2 feb etc
I-28
J-29
K-30
L=31
M-32 ---- the original A generators it is on the band, but later it is on the field
N-33 housing, usually with "FORD"
O-34 ---and continues
