If its been resprayed already there's no guarantee that it will match any VW code, even if resprayed with an original colour (or even if its the original factory paint) the passage of time can cause changes in the shade.
Best bet is to go to a supplier who can mix the paint to perfectly match your van. Any competent auto paint supplier should be easily able to mix up a batch in bulk or aerosol format to exactly match the shade currently on the vehicle.
