WWI British 103 Percussion Fuse - further ident?

Hello folks -

Just getting feet wet here, have what I think is a british 103 mk IV fuse for an 18 pound shell.

Lots of additional markings in the brass, however - wonder if you might help me identify any interesting ones? Would love to know more about manufacturer, specifics of this fuse (eg what is "F8 2 18"? how about 'zc' markings?).

Photo of fuse below, along with hand sketch of the markings.

Thanks in advance -

matt
