The number appears just ahead of the oil cooler tower very near the flange for the transmission on the motor (drivers side). The normal VW part number which is typically located where the alternator tower attaches, is not there. I do have some photos and will try to get them posted (or a link posted) once I figure out how to do that.
Here is some other info on the car:
Body #16913
Chasis #SP10212787
