The part # for all type 3 window cranks is xxx 837 581 ? where xxx is 
either 311, 111, or 113 and ? is a letter. The number you gave does 
not fit which makes me believe it is a number off the part, which is 
the VW subpart # for internal use only.

My listing shows the number for up thru 67 to be 311 837 581 E (043) 
where 043 is the color code for grey-black.

Here are some examples:
p/n 311 837 581 E, -67 (this one off a 66, white knob)
all chrome handle/center, on back: 311 837 585 A

p/n 113 837 581 D, 68-71
chrome center, black handle, on back: 111/113 837 579

p/n 111 837 581 J, 72-3
black center/handle, on back:111 837 579 A

It's important to understand that just because you can find what is 
obviously a VW # on a part, that does not mean that this is (or ever 
was) the VW # that you need to order to get the part you have in your 
hand. Cases and heads are good examples of this.
