There is no way to know what vehicle an engine came from, but you can determine the relative vintage of the parts with the casting numbers. The block casting number is down near the starter mount and the head casting numbers are on the head gasket side near one of the central intake ports, you can see these with a mirror with the intake off.

E3AE means it was cast anytime after 1983. Best guess would be sometime in 1987 by the "7HXX" every where.
