Default Help with engine code please

I just got my engine back from the machine shop and there was a little confusion about which parts were mine, and now I have a slight worry about whether I got my original block back. There were at least 2 small block chevy 4 bolt mains there at the same time.
The number stamped on the pad is V1002HY. It should be a 300 hp. 350 from a 1969 with a 4 speed. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Casting # is 3932386 which I believe is a 69 small block.

V1002HY

V - Flint
10 - Oct.
02 - 2nd
HY - 350/300/4spd.

The partial VIN of your car should also be stamped on the same pad as the V1002HY.

Thank you it looks like it's the right engine. Car and paperwork are on the other side of the state but I was able to check the VIN on the insurance paperwork. It's a 4 bolt main, I suppose all corvettes are.

Actually, they are not all 4-bolt mains. The L-48 is a 2 bolt main engine.
