The C1 could have been a casting pattern identifier -- you'd have to search for other 9942 blocks to see what they have in that position. Not much help, I know.
Keep in mind that these blocks were intended to be used across all sorts of Chevrolet/GM applications. The cast blocks were the same; the differences were made in the machine shops.
Edit: just noticed this block on another current thread...
