No one changed anything. I bought the vehicle brand new from dealership . . . I am the one and only owner of the vehicle. It is a 2000 Ford Expedition XLT. 8th digit of VIN is "6". However, there are 11 bolts on each valve cover. Plus the driver's side valve cover shows "0G846AA", which indicates the engine broadcast code is VIN 6, Romeo plant, 6 bolt flywheel . .. . see here:
