Identifying correct AirCon Compressor

Hello all,
My vehicle is 2002 ML270CDI (RHD)
VIN WDC1631132A367386 – ENG – 61296330191308
he AirCon has stopped working - just blows normal air.
My Indy tells me the Compressor neds replacing.
Have tried to source the part number off the compressor still in the vehicle but cannot see any numbers.
Some research for a replacement tells me there are three different Compressors for this vehicle.
Anyone know how I can identify the correct Compressor - Part number please?

If you can't find it, and you have a local dealer, go to spare parts with your VIN and ask for a quote. Get them to print the quote and it'll have the part number that matches your VIN.
