The chassis number may help. You will find it on top of the left hand chassis member to the rear of the rear engine mount and close to where the bulkhead meets the chassis. (Just behind the fuel pipe clamp)
In addition, if the transmission tunnel cover is still the original, the Body Number (not the car number) should be stamped into the cover near to where it meets the gearbox. For example, mine, which is an early June 1933 RP, chassis 176617 has the body number RP 10454
The RP differs slightly from the RN in a number of respects. They were mentioned in another thread on here a bit back.
