"Transporter" is correct. The second part consists of two digits. "T2" would be the continuation of the Mercedes designation "T1".

Yes, the "Transporter 70" was to be the successor to the F 20 to F 35 series. There was also already a flatbed truck as a prototype. The takeover by Daimler-Benz put an end to the project for the time being.
Here is your next point.

Yes, and there are indications that the types 601/602 from 1977 onwards are based on it.
I once had a Hanomag employee as a bedmate in hospital who told me that he had worked on the design of the dashboard.
In the mid-70s, you could regularly see only lightly camouflaged pre-production models with test drive plates in the city of Hanover. It stands to reason that the Hanomag test track in Hanover-Linden was used for practical trials.

Is it another Louis L. Lepoix design? It certainly looks like it.

Wendax, it's possible, but I only know Lepoix sketches for Hanomag vans, but those are front-steer. It looks like a direct development of the Tempo series.
Btw: According to Werner Oswald, the above-mentioned Mercedes transporters were actually developed at the Hanover plant.
