My brother is working on a corsair for his boss, restoring from ground up to fly again.The are using another one for patterns for anything they are missing.He had a couple questions and I thought someone out here will know or know where to get it.
1- On center section, upper frame is a work order number, WO2981, is there any way to track down where this part has been?????

2. inside tail gear door area is a stencil,
2098W

Any idea what this is???? he has not seen it before and was wondering?
Thanks ahead of time
