Unless the dealer swapped out the block it would remain the same. No one will know if any dealer did that but it’s a simple swap. Just the intake, carbs, air cleaner, and other small parts.

The dealer would not change the stamp on the block, regardless of what intake assembly was installed after they took delivery of the car.
Dealers made many parts swap, for paying customers, but documentation from the dealer is more important to a collector than the physical parts (for example, a Yenko invoice or similar document showing the change).
I would expect an L36 block with a 6-pack would receive flight judging point deductions (if a TF restoration is a goal, otherwise it looks cool and if it works well the 6-pack can deliver good fuel economy).

Just asking because I have seen a window sticker (reproduction?) that showed an L36 in the top part of the RPO's and at the bottom a L68 conversion that listed for about $104.00 extra. I guess the block should still have T----IC stamp on it. ??

That is how GM billed the L68.

As stated above the window sticker would show both, it is not a conversion, the block would be stamped by the factory JC.
