Case 480B Backhoe serial number location

I've recently acquired a 1973 480B diesel. I can find all the model and serial numbers on it except for the hoe. From the case parts manual it looks close to the same as the 33S. It's an extendahoe.

    Yes if it has the single boom cylinder it's a 33s hoe.

    Any idea where to look for the serial number as several parts have references to serial numbers. I can find the loader, engine, tractor and transmission ones. I've looked it all over and no luck.
