I would like to know what year

I would like to know what year this engine was manufactured and what its rated maximum RPM is. I am presently turning 5450 rpm with the current 14"x 10 1/4 prop. The local Merc. dealer can't answer either of these questions. The ser.# is 0G298029. Is the "98" the year of manufacture?

"The motor was built in 1996 - could have been sold as any model year "new", but that's when it came from the plant.
