Ok, not a 100% definitive but at least it`s something, thanks to Dave at MMC.
"Jeff,
I spoke to Dave and he said that with some parts like door and hood hinges the stampings are often unique to the vendor. However, there is an ability for the vendor to understand the production information code for traceability for safety or manufacturing recalls. Often there is only 1 character that represents the year it was produced.
Have a great day.

Since all my originals have either 9, 0, 09 or 10 (depending on how they decode the year) that would make sense. Other parts have the first three as the day and last digit the year but I guess the hood and door hinges could read differently?
