Default WTB: 1970 LT1 Motor

I'm trying to track down the motor for my car. Long story, but am lead to believe it still exists.

VIN#194370S408087

Car originally purchased in Queens, NY, Lauguna Gray. Painted black a day or two later. Black was faster I guess.

Original owner swapped motors in 1972 with a GM replacement after a couple of good races. (Maybe more than a couple)
Sold the motor to a guy named Gary on Long Island. Gary sold the motor about 10-15 years ago. No paperwork on who he sold it too.

Original owner bought speed parts at B&R Auto in Mineola NY from Eddie.

If it's still around, I would like to get it back with the car.

Thanks for any leads you can provide.

Default Date code and suffic

March 30, 1970, and should be CTU. Not sure when the CTK suffix started, but I believe it was over 10000 VIN #.

I have a CTU code engine with a Feb build date that came with a project I bought it is VO216CTU which If I am correct should be flint Feb 16 that I am going to sell as I want to put a big block in this project
There is no Vin # stamped on this engine \
