Model year for 8hp Mariner Please?

[denny08]

I recently purchased the above off ebay.
Model 8ML 6G1 S/N 1311888
The motor is long shaft with a power prop, as opposed to high rev prop, as usually supplied. and is 2 stroke, tiller steer.
Is anyone in a position to tell me the year of manufacture, please?
Any help is appreciated.

The '1' I have highlighted should not be there. Me thinks it is a 1984 model.
