casting inventory at Tonawanda was generally FILO. The balance of the unmachined early foundry run was placed in rough casting inventory either between the plants or out in the yard. It was common for pallets of slow moving castings to get buried behind other inventory and frozen in place (Buffalo winters). The rough casting inventory would be organized and counted at physical inventory time and put back into inventory flow.
I don't recall how the motor plant would store machined blocks, but at least some must have been FILO too. I had a 9561 car with POP showing January assembled engine in an 05E car.
