Default Anyone able to help identify a carrier

Posting this on behalf of James Fritz in Canada who has been trying to join MLU for quite some time. He can read but can't post so here is what he says...

Is there someone on the MLU forum who would be able to help me identify the carrier using both numbers? Also how best to raise the number if at all possible.

In looking at the hull number I think the number is 138?2 or 38?2 or 13??2 or 3??2. I don't know if the 1 is indeed a 1 or a just a marking from the stamping process. There also may be an additional symbol or marking to the right of the 2. I didn't want to brush too hard in case I did damage.

The one of the motor shows the engine to be #8095 and that it was rebuilt in Nov. 1952.
