The stamped ID adjacent to the side cover has the month, day, year, and shift. -
Re: 1959 TRANSMISSION
Are we talking "3 Speeds", "4 Speeds" or "Automatics"?
I looked on my original '59 3 speed and didn't see any stamped date codes.

Re: 1959 TRANSMISSION
Glen,
In case John's answer leaves your question unanswered, you might be talking about casting date.
So just in case, your phrase "Stamped into the main body" leaves out the cast information for the case. On the 59 the casting date is in the format of month & date.
Others may be able to tell you exactly when the Month, Date & Year numbers began to appear. I have a 62 case with these three in it.
I hope I have helped.
