I am looking at an engine block. I have read many of the forums search posts on decoding, but this has me puzzled.

Block is 3782870

Date is G 12 3 ( july 12 1963 )

Pad stamp is F0722S

The problem is in the pad stamp. Is this enough letters and numbers, can't figure how to decode this. Can someone help decode, if this pad stamp is correct, where did it come from, where does it belong.
Thanks for any help.

The suffix S shows up as a 62 327 w/Powerglide from a full size Chevy.

Is there a link that I can put in these numbers and it will show me exactly what this is. 5thvet, how can it say 62, if stamp date is G 12 3 ???

S was used for:

'62-64 327 Impala 250HP Power glide 4-Brl Hyd Cam

Looks like it was cast July 12 1963 and assembled July 22 1963. My reading
