I have been enjoying reading up on this find and built, very interesting! While I cannot offer any COPO specific I do have some knowledge on wiper motors
So the foil labels started coming out sometime in early 69. Prior to that part numbers were stamped on the motor end plate.
The top line is the part number 20043206 looks like a Buick Apollo or similar.
bottom line is Julian date 309 (beginning of Nov), single digit is the year (I guess 1976)
Last item 5A is a line or plant code.
For a non-RS car you want to find a 5045572 labeled motor. Luck!
