Two classes of self-referential exponential power series, originally specified by Paul D. Hanna in the On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences (OEIS), are investigated by integral bivariate series and coefficientwise congruences. A multivariate Dieudonné--Dwork argument shows that a family whose defining exponent involves qⁿ+rA(x) has integer coefficients for every pair of integers q,r. In particular, this resolves, at the level of formal power series, the stated all-integer-parameter integrality conjecture associated with OEIS A163138. We also prove a uniform congruence modulo $4$ between positive and negative feedback, a signed-source congruence, explicit dyadic congruence formulas modulo $4$, and a congruence theorem modulo $8$ for the even coefficients when q≡ 24 and r is odd. Eight integer sequences are treated as specializations. Exact calculations and separately reproducible examples illustrate, but do not replace, the all-degree proofs.
