Location: Lower Mainland BC | Congrats. Looks great. Job well done. 
I can't give you much help but I can give you the link to my heater-related post in which we establish that the PN for the heater valve is 1688 946, across the board (mostly) in 55-57 at least, including Desoto. The thread includes info about the Ranco heater valves and the modern equivalent and NAPA rebuild kits and links on how to do it:

This is the one that I bought (and it is still available on eBay):

Good luck.

Location: DFW, TX | Raffaele, I think I have a good heater valve. I'll look this weekend. If I find it, it is an original from a 42k mile New Yorker. Can you verify it's the same part? |

Be aware that the Model 705 heater (whatever that was) used a 1819 516 heater valve not the 1688 946.

It is certainly 100% original, never replaced. It did not leak before, but it's hard to guarantee.
Let me know if you're interested in the entire assembly, I have just about all the parts.

It most likely is a Ranco H16 like the eBay one, so the $10 NAPA heater valve repair kit would work in the event that it did leak:
