ZL-1 block versus Can-Am block?

A hot rod acquaintance has a 1969-1970 vintage Aluminum BBC motor. He claims it came from Bill Jenkin's shop many years ago and has just been rebuilt. I assumed it was an over-the-counter ZL-1 block but he referred to it as a "Can-Am" block. Are these the same blocks? If not,what are the differences?
He said the Can-Am block was used by Jim Hall in the Chapparal program.
Any thoughts?

Thanks- DandyDon
