Wasn't the combi code 74M? At least that's the way it was at LH before they converted their 744 Combis into pure pax jets.Next:

When I was in maintenance control I found some of the identifiers very confusing. The 747-249 were physically identical in every respect to0 two -245's that were still on the assembly line and Bowing converted them from JT9D-70A power to -7Q's. Yet we needed to note the difference for operational purposes because the two -7Q powered and 4 -70A powered aircraft had the variable zero fuel weight option. Thus the -249's were noted as 47Q and the -7Q powered -245's were 47Z. That what happens when the old computer system only allows a three digit identifier. The newer computer programs can be modified to allow larger I.D. fields but old habits are hard to change.Don
