im not really sure about the numbers stamped on the front, but if you look at the back of the engine on the passenger side it should have a block casting number in it, you can tell where the block came from
Hope this helps a little. But the casting numbers in the back of the engine would help alot. Also, you are missing a number in the front pad. It should have 8 numbers you only have 7. Recheck it again and post it up and I will get you more info.

The diamond on the heads designates what heads they were. The ones to have were the double came hump heads. The different markings meant certain valve sizes in the heads and chamber size.
