FWIW the punch mark that's of interest on A4 barrels is not the one in the center of the Ordnance bomb.
Also most of the rifles in this s/n range have MARCH 43 barrels.

Pvt Joker are there any remnants of any stock markings? left side behind trigger; in the cut off notch; forward of magazine or on the grip or wrist?

I got a Lyman Alaskan scope and rings coming from eBay, a Redfield base (in the red box) coming off Gunbroker, and am watching a bolt auction there too. The stock; well, you can see the pictures I posted. I don't think there's any "fixing" the original one at this point, but do I keep the modified original or do I get one of the repro C stocks (either the CMP or the SARCO ones) ?
