Hi John
A bit of digging found this, https://vdocuments.site/jpat-converter-guide.html (scroll down to p.34), but unfortunately doesn't tell you much more than harvey has just told you.

Some more digging the Red 7EZ was listed in a specific mk1 spares book and was the last automatic entry.

I’ve taken a picture of the plate this definitely came out of a 73 Pi which has these numbers.

These numbers sound similar to yours John how bizarre can’t be coincidence. Was the facelift triumphs upgraded to a BW65, then when the preface 125bhp specification came out it could have been assigned this plate for a short run.

Thanks to Dave , Harvey and Ross, I am now reasonably satisfied that the auto box with the id plate 452 in my 73 Sienna PI is the original one according to the Jpat guide, which lists it from 10/68 to 05/74.
The one in the white 69 Mk2 PI with the 13EZ blue id plate auto box, according to the Jpat guide is also likely to be the original one, as it lists the 7EZ and the 13EZ from 10/68 to 05/74.
I would have posted photos of my id plates but I don't know how to do it!!!!
Thanks to all for your info!

Thank you to Dave, John and Harvey for the information. After cleaning and installing all in new seals and gaskets in the 13EZ box that is now going to be a spare, and the 452 is going have new seals and gaskets and that will go on the Carmine 73 Pi. Thanks again everyone. :D
