The 2SC458-C is manufactured in a plastic TO-92 case. When looking at the flat side with the leads pointed downward, the three leads emerging from the transistor are, from left to right, the emitter, collector, and base leads.
Here is an image showing the pin diagram of this transistor.The 2SC458-C transistor can have a current gain of 160 to 320. The gain of the 2SC458 will be in the range from 100 to 500, for the 2SC458-B it will be in the range from 100 to 200, for the 2SC458-D it will be in the range from 250 to 500.Sometimes the "2S" prefix is not marked on the package - the 2SC458-C might only be marked "C458-C".The complementary PNP transistor to the 2SC458-C is the 2SA1031-C.The BC848 (SOT-23), BC848W (SOT-323), BC849 (SOT-23) and BC849W (SOT-323) is the SMD version of the 2SC458-C transistor. These transistors are of the same type, have similar parameters and are designed for surface mounting.You can replace the 2SC458-C with the 2N3707, 2N3708, 2N3710, 2SC1318, 2SC1384, 2SC1570, 2SC1570-F, 2SC1571, 2SC1571-F, 2SC1815, 2SC1959, 2SC2002, 2SC2120, 2SC2120-Y, 2SC2236, 2SC2236-Y, 2SC2274, 2SC2274-F, 2SC2277, 2SC2277D, 2SC2310, 2SC2310-C, 2SC2328A, 2SC2328A-Y, 2SC2458, 2SC2500, 2SC2500-A, 2SC2500-B, 2SC2500-C, 2SC2500-D, 2SC2710, 2SC2710-Y, 2SC2785, 2SC2960, 2SC2960-F, 2SC3114, 2SC3198, 2SC3199, 2SC3203, 2SC3203-Y, 2SC3205, 2SC3205-Y, 2SC3330, 2SC3331, 2SC3382, 2SC3383, 2SC3916, 2SC3917, 2SC3918, 2SC3919, 2SC3920, 2SC3921, 2SC3922, 2SC3923, 2SC3940A, 2SC4208A, 2SC4408, 2SC4604, 2SC536, 2SC536-F, 2SC536N, 2SC536N-F, 2SC945, 2SD1207, 2SD1347, 2SD1616, 2SD1616A, 2SD1835, 2SD789, 2SD789-C, 2SD863, 2SD863-F, BC167, BC182L, BC182LB, BC184L, C1815, C945, H945, KSC1008C, KSC1815, KSC2328A, KSC2328A-Y, KSC2500, KSC2500-A, KSC2500-B, KSC2500-C, KSC2500-D, KSC5019, KSC815C, KSC945C, KSD1021, KSD1616, KSD1616A, KSD471AC, KTC1008, KTC1008-GR, KTC3198, KTC3199, KTC3203, KTC3203Y, KTC3204, KTC3204Y, KTC3205, KTC3205Y, KTC3210, KTC3210Y, KTD863 or KTD863-GR.
