The fact that french horns (corno) was originally written one octave
above in soprano clef, and in actual pitch in basso, explain the
difference from bas and clef transposition.
To calculate from notation in a transposed part to actual sound: find
the interval in relation to C (below) and

that depends.
In older notation it should have sound as D4 (D above middle C)
In modern notation
I'm sorry! You're right of course. I should have read the question more
carefully.

A top-line bass clef A is possible on a natural horn only

That is the primary reason I know of. It is important also to realize
that old-notation bass clef is really a form of alto

You're right. But that wasn't the question, was it?

The part in question is horn in G in bass clef, but not modern. It is
by an 18th Century Italian (Tuscany) composer. I should have stated the
time frame in my original post.

The A written on the fifth line of the bass clef is a very unusual note to
find in a part for natural horn (if that's what it is)

Except that there are no worms in this case (an 18th cent composition).
