			Pulled the engine and trans out today to further access to cleaning and detailing. Things are progressing along but not at breakneck speed. Having fun though, I am. Once the engine was out. I was able to get a clear shot of the casting date on the back of the block. Adding that picture here for reference purposes. It closely matches the front stamp which I had not posted earlier. Block was cast 8 days earlier than it was stamped on the front pad for the build date.

			Graeme thanks for sharing these great details. What are those markings on the wiper motor case? Possibly a rebuild sticker but is that some sort of ink stamp next to it, partly obscured by the engine lift bracket?
