You are importing with Python3 a module written for Python2.

pyserial-2.6 comes with a "setup.py" script that will do the conversion, you should run it and not try to import the source code directly.

And yes, a number with leading zeros is an invalid token in Python3, because in Python2 it was an octal number, and now we spell octal as, eg, 0o0001.
