While I have the suspension out, I was able to check some numbers cast into the passenger side of the block near the front and the underside of the passenger exhaust manifold. I haven't checked the driver's manifold yet. If I understand them right, they seem to verify that this is likely the original engine in my car.
On the block I found:
B8AE60158 (Not completely sure about the 'B' or the '5')
0F22:3
On the passenger manifold:
575J204 (Not sure about the 'J')
0F 22
I the '0F22 on each the casting date?
0 meaning 1960
F meaning June
22 meaning the 22nd?
My car has a build date of 0G26, so that means (assuming I'm reading it right) that these parts were cast a month before my car was built and are likely the originals.
I have pictures I can post later, but I need to get back out to the garage.
