Name that engine!

Got bored and decided why not play a game I am going to post an engine block picture and we will see who guesses it first. Once it is guessed I will post a new one. I have a feeling the is going to be a short game.

So close but no. Pay close attention to the oil cross over at the rear of the engine that is the difference

AND WE HAVE A WINNER congrats to you 79 f350ts.
