What engine is it?

I did a very quick search on Google and didn't find anything.
Have you tried searching the forum for it already?

I don't think that is what he is asking. He wants to know if the engine has a Vin stamped on it so that he can match it to the one on the truck. I don't think they do this.

the engine serial should be on the side of the block, behind the alternator.

Did anyone ever find the vin # located on the engine block? I have a 22re and am having no luck finding it.

As flash319 says, I don't think anyone puts the VIN on the engine block.

Abecedarian identified the engine serial number. http://personal.utulsa.edu/~nathan-b.../2identifi.pdf
