L39a1 magazine issue

[Merlin266]

Hi all, wonder if anyone can shed any light on the magazine fitted to my L39a1. The part no is CR 141A 65 the last bit of the number appears to be either a small D or E. I understand the loading platform role of the magazine on the 7.62 rifle, with this fitted to my rifle it will only chamber the round on the right side of the magazine facing forward. I've added some pics of the magazine and what appears to be machining inside the magazine housing
