From these photos shot while it was still in its (very faded) original livery, it seems that the marking was within the middle casting of the transmission housing only:

FO121672 Tank Memorial - original markings.jpg FO121673 Tank Memorial - original markings.jpg

So, if this marking was indeed the WD No. and given the size of the digits, it must have been written in two lines:

148
656
