Default Block casting number

I might be able to get a newly cast block but they are asking me for the casting number of the block I want. I would like the same block as I have an L98 roller block. Anyone got any idea what they are asking for. TIA. Tim

Might want to ask this in the "Engine Mods" section. Those guys have every single Chevy small block casting number memorized.
