Does anyone know where to find it? Are there any stamps on the wheels, engine, other parts that show the month and year of manufacture?

Is there not a sticker on the driver's side door?
Mine is US and I have one.No. Do you have one on your 1995 Cruiser? Maybe they just did that for the U.S. market?

How do you know that where ToyoDIY indicates "Year" it actually means "Date of Manufacture"...wouldn't the ToyoDIY site state that's indeed the case that if that's what it meant? Or is there some reference as to the precise definition of "Year"?

That's what it means. Every Land Cruiser I have ever run the VIN on through this website matched the manufacturer data plate date. Why do you think it's not correct? Is it because it is registered as a 1995?
Edit: Actually every Toyota I have looked up has matched as some were not Land Cruisers.
Because I have documents that were printed for this car, for this VIN that were printed many months before that date, and so they would have had registration papers before the Land Cruiser even existed if ToyoDIY "Year" is the actual Date of Manufacture. For example I have one from its registration in Germany: genehmigt eu genehmigungsnummrt/-datum / 01.03/1996 Unless.....someone got a hold of Stewie's Time Machine!

Well I speak pretty fluent German but unfortunately I can't help you with that. Let us know when you figure out the date and report back. I'm not saying ToyoDIY is infallible but it has matched all of mine perfectly.
Of course it is odd that you don't have a data plate...and your papers don't seem to match the VIN (maybe, maybe not). I lived in Germany and the UK and I'm pretty sure all my vehicles had data plates, including a 2005 Land Cruiser.
Here's an example of my '97 80:
