On mine the stamp is on the inner sidewall, next to the “DOT”. I believe the last 4 digits are the date, with the first two as the week and the last two as the year. So on my old ones 2109 means 21st...

Ha!

And good eye, Charlie. The 3310 on there now has the PCV inlet on the back of the base, so I didn’t have to change the hose length to route it that way. I recently had the original 4053...
