Pretty sure LD1 is actually 173

L20 would be 3300 (202)

The only number stamped into the body of the car is the chassis number and that number should match the number on the Compliance Plate (the one with the build date and all the ADR numbers). The chassis number is stamped near the edge of the flat panel above the drivers side chassis rail approx 6 inches or so rearward of the radiator.
