I've looked at my AT&E combined 2XX type. It has L40041 on the bellset, both diagrams inside the bellset cover are faded to white . However the inside of mine is exactly as per a GPO Bellset No 26 (See https://britishtelephones.com/atm/t4058.htm for the inside of the AT&E equivalent of the GPO B/S 25 ). Note how the wiring is a lot neater than yours - looks like yours has been 'rewired' by a collector at some stage. Also the terminal strip in yours is different.

My telephone is also the AT&E equivalent of a GPO Tele 232 except for the 'ATM' logo in the oval on the handset and no other markings/diagram inside. I've kept it that way to use with one of my AT&E Strowger PAXs.
