To the right as your picture is shown will be the date code the block was cast
The code will be smaller in size than the casting code
It will be alpha numeric, 4 or 5 digits long
A1369 = Jan 13 1969 - the tricky part can be deciphering what the year vs the day code is.
A139 - would likely be Jan 13 1959 - need to understand the difference in generations of block you are looking at.
You have the deck stamp to play into the picture which can help narrow the generation of motor

Looks like a 68 2 bolt main 327. "T" in the second set of pad numbers is Tonawanda NY Engine plant. I do not believe it is a Corvette block.
