based on the casting date of B274 or Feb 27 1964 that block is 327/375 (fuel injected) can you get a clear picture of the stamp pad

does the partial vin on the stamp pad match the cars vin number? and just because those numbers are stamped on the block doesn't mean they were done by a flint worker
