According to the USNO-A2.0 catalog there is a blue mag 16.4 star
only 3.0" from the position reported by Pam Kilmartin on IAUC 7176:
R.A. 10h44m48.416s Decl. -52d25'31.23" (J2000.0) r= 16.4, b= 16.4
Looks like a very good candidate for the pre-nova. It is also the
USNO-A2.0 star closest to the (probably less accurate) position
reported by Andrew Pearce (cf. vsnet-alert 3019).
The following star seems to be too far away (9.4" from Kilmartin's
coordinates) and too red (b-r= 1.2):
R.A. 10h44m49.095s Decl. -52d25'29.87" (J2000.0) r= 16.6, b= 17.8
Regards,
Patrick
