Default 72 LT-1 CKY stamp

So I started cleaning on my LT-1 this weekend and found some cool suprises. On the side of the block, under the thin orange paint, is a very clear CKY paint stamp on the block. In addition to this there is a number "4" written under the paint in yellow grease paint right next to the #4 exhaust port. Also, on the back of the block, above the starter there is a big spot of yellew inspection paint much like the distributor inspection spot. This was all covered by 35 years of leaky valve cover grease. You never know what you will find when you start looking so be gentle with the solvents. I have pictures if anyone is interested.
