Block casting numbers help

12589779 is on the back right side of the block. On the back left side of the block above the oil filter is etched T7R229356. On the block in front of the right cylinder head is cast 01F605 or 01F60S. I know its a gen 4 but could not find any info with these numbers. Was tild it came out of a 09 Tahoe. Thanks in advance.
