When using the Old DND number system one sometimes had three lines of letters/numbers

Ficticious example as photos are buried right now:

HAL.RIF.

Z

41-1-1234

I have never heard of the -1- in the middle of a number being replaced by a "Z".

Ahhh...I misunderstood. You're talking about the "1" in the lower number, I was talking the "Z" in the middle between the two white lines. The Z seem to follow the overseas system where "Z" is truck, "T" is tracked, etc.
