Need help decoding engine block

I have a 69 vette that has a 1970 body on it with a Big block. I was told it has a nom which I was told it is a 396 the numbers on the block are: TI2056LX OR TI2056TX These numbers are on the pass side of the block in front of the head. Any help would be appreciated.

Not sure if that helps... sounds to me like its been pieced together... hopefully someone else will know more..
