Look right under where the water temp sender is. There should be a flat area and the number should be stamped there. You may need to hit it with a wire brush to clean off some of the rust, and they run a piece of chalk over it to clearly see the number. The numbers are small almost look like they were stamped by hand with a hammer and a letter die.

Here is what it looked like on my car when I first found it. Here I just cleaned it quickly with a hand held wire brush, and ran some chalk over it that I borrowed from my kids.
