I think it is French made export for Greece (or a re-used WW1 case, seen many times for Greece, but head stamp seems made in one go). I am not sure if the length is original. There is a French 75x165R90.10 mm, normally these Greek cases are as you mentioned of the type 75x190R90.10 mm. So hard to be sure as the rim diameter is the same. I think the year is 1936.
