I have a similar stamping on my engine block below the starter which looks home made and there's also one on the casing of the gearbox although I suspect the gearbox number is a factory stamping which is probably a gearbox serial number I'm guessing?

Hi Warren,

 

That is factory date code stamping. I have a spare 6cyl bellhousing dated 11/08/70.

 

Cheers,

Dave.
