In response to whoever keeps the "serial number to MC correlation" database,
I've deleted your message, but I have a 28/2.8 with a serial number in the
1406xx range that is labelled "Zuiko MC".  I purchased this lens from
someone on this list last year (sorry, memory ain't what it used to be).
So it appears that there is a batch of 28/2.8 lenses with the low serial
number that are MC after all.
