Question on a K98 BYF 44 serial # 9621h

[Sunnyside]

Was it part of 1944 K98 assembly practice to not serialize the small bolt release lever on the top left of the receiver? I had read that it maybe for the case of the rear sights in late war model K98s. maybe...possibly...would it be in a different place on that lever?

Thanks
