Does the bottom nylon fitting have wings, like the top nylon fitting does? I can't exactly tell from your photo. If it does however, and if the bottom nylon fitting also has a depth of 1", then yes, this is a S380-33. Just check to be sure. Your stamp code of 32 3 conforms to our stamp option of 3230. Let us know if you have any questions.

yes the bottom has wings and they are about one inch wide.
i'm not sure what depth you refer to but the other measurements could be one inch depending on how you measure it.
i think we are on the same page so i would order
S380-33/3230?

Let me clarify. If you sat the balance up straight as it sits in the window, the depth is the distance between the 'heel' and 'toe' of the nylon shoe. See the photo below. For the Series 380, this depth is 1". For the Series 385, the depth is 1-3/32". Let me know if this helps.

Comparison of the S378, S380 and S385 balance shoes.

Nope, the stamp is the same regardless of the combination of nylon fittings. I think you picked out the right product!
