Have tried to find an answer to this.

When was the last 356 engine produced an in which cars was the last 356es installed?
Were they ever equipped with Ultramatic?

The 356 was installed in the Custom eights through 1950. Since the new 1951 models began production in August of 1950, I would guess that the last 356 was probably manufactured in April or May of 1950--perhaps even earlier as they were not selling well.

Ultramatic was standard equipment on the Custom Eight beginning with the 23d series in 1949.

I believe the last 356 engines were made in January of 1951 as the IM-356 marine engine.
