The number you posted is the base part number.
There are number before and a letter at the end to identify the application.

And not sure with the whole number you will find the part that way.

The full part number is D1AZ 3E723 C

This has a lot of tilt wheel applications including 1973 to 1979 Mark series.
Ford calls that part the steering column lock actuator assembly
