Looking in the Steven Dove Facts and Figures book, the code for a '71 350 Auto trans 43-44000 w/4bbl or 45000 w/2 & 4 bbl is 1112080. Is the "H" actually a "11"?

Can't help you on the OM7. I'm assuming that's a date code?

Hope this helped.

Should be build date. December 7 1970.
First is Year 0= 1970. Second is a letter code for the month. A= Jan, B=Feb etc.
I is not used so M= Dec. Last is the day of the month. 7 is the 7th etc.
