Where can I find the serial number on my 9.9 mercury outboard?

I am trying to find the serial number on a 2hp Mercury outboard motor.?

The engine cover is plastic,dark grey in colour & has "Thruster from Mercury Marine" in white letters on it. I have looked all over it & there are no numbers or component brand names anywhere to say where it was made.Usually serial numbers are stamped on the mounting bracket,but on this one. Does anyone know what model year it is from my description?I have a photo of it if I can get that on here somehow. I need a new fuel valve to replace a broken one & my local Mercury dealer says the part is no longer available & does not know the age of the motor. Thanks.
Answer:

My friend had a mercury outboard and had the same problem, he contacted a dealer and they told him it was on an aluminium core plug on the side of the block, his was a more powerful model though so not sure if this will help you, check it out anyway, it may be correct for your engine.
