Look inside the drivers door jam near the hinges and light switch. Should be a metal plate riveted there with the code.

Can't tell from your pick, but maybe 708 Metallic Black? My '81 is that color, but looks like dark gray metallic in the sun...or black in the shade.

Have you stopped by the Porsche Dealer in your area and reviewed their older Paint Chip books. They may have the color tucked away somewhere.
