What year and model vehicle and engine are you dealing with? SOME late '60s high performance cars (think 428 Mustang or Boss 302) had partial VINs stamped on them.

Scroll down a bit here for a picture. Not easy to get to.

More on casting numbers:

Ford 352, 390, 406, 427 and 428 Engine Blocks

Thousands of blocks will have the same casting numbers.
No, I don’t need a VIN stamped on the motor, I just need the date of manufacture, these codes usually stamped in the motors are enough. I imported a 66 Mustang 2 years ago and when dealing with the paperwork, I needed that motor date code.
All in my signature buddy.
