Questions about my 1917 DWM Artillery

J. Peppers,
Yes the 12 [edited to correct error in original post that read 42] is stamped on the inside bottom lip of the side plate. It doesn't look to me though that the 4's on the side plate and receiver were made with the same stamp. The slant stroke on the side plate appears to be squatier (is that a word?) and at a slightly sharper angle.
