Vin for what I can read on the block:

TYZ is 1975 350 4bbl 165hp pickup truck C10-2500
3970010 is a 4" bore block used in many different Chevy vehicles. Can be 2 or 4 bolt mains.
Not original, but an OK place to start.

That's two different stamps.
C5Z150919 is the VIN derivitive of the vehicle this engine was originally isntalled in. This number is not Corvette.
V0628TYZ is the engine code.
V Flint, Michigan engine assembly plant
0628 June 28th; date the engine was assembled at Flint
TYZ engine suffix code indicating 75-77 truck engine.
