Default engine identification

I am wondering if this is even the original motor in my vette..... vin doen't match serial on block, and i can't seem to find my code..... "TXP" any one know where I can find out what engine that code calls out? And what it was supposed to be in? I hope at least a vette? my luck it's a vega motor lol.

Thanks,

Loren :confused: as usual
