What is the entire number on the tag, beginning to end?

Need the complete number as Jim said. In 1967 MF started using the 9A prefix, and if yours has the 9A then it's a 1967. If the number is 641020480 then it's a 1966.

Where is the engine serial number for a 1998 Massey
Ferguson 231 tractor? It has the Perkins AD3.152 Diesel
engine.

Thanks!

That is all that is readable, There is something that is not very good before that but very hard to make out.

How many characters does it look like there may be ahead of the 20480? How about trying a couple pictures of the tag?
