You would have to do the bottom bolt flat, opposite side of the serial.

It isn't likely Spandau made, but possibly/probably Danzig. Spandau was never known to get to the b-block of 98a production. The b-suffix looks Danzig in style and they did b-block routinely. Erfurt also broke the b-block often, but they tend to use an incursive "b".
