Didn't actually see a date just the xs650 SE.
Coming from Ireland you need to identify the bike by the vin no. It will be on the Vin plate/sticker on the head-stock and stamped on the head-stock as well. This behind the headlight and a matching # should be on the front of the engine to the left of the oil tube, going to the head, when looking at the engine from the front.................If you have the Euro US Custom it will be different to the US models. The Euro US Custom never got the Factory TCI ignition, points only, that is why your safety relay is a short fat one, same as in post #6.
On the left bar switch you should have a Pass/flash switch as well. US models never got this...............Pic from my 80SG Oceania model. We also never got the Factory Electronic ignition, (TCI).............. Points only. Need a condenser pack on points bikes
