Not that it's the bible but the US factory paint manual doesn't reference Montegoschwrtz Metallic anywhere for 911s. But again, it does come up under 944. In that case I'd guess the correct code is LY9V - Montego Black Metallic. Also you might want to varify the last character since there is both an LY9V and an LY9Y both can look the same on faded paint stickers. The later (LY9Y) is Satin Black Metallic so that could make things more confusing. Sounds like the car is in good condition so I'll assume the original codes are easily discernable.
Porsche's docs obviously aren't perfect. What is actually hysterical is the fact that under "paint data plates" there is a section where they show a car of each model type with an example of where to find the paint plates. On both the example of the 89' C4 and an 89' 928 both cars show a tag labeled "717/9/3 Montegoschwarz Metallic". There is no reference for that paint code ever being available for either model !!
