Roller 351 with bogus casting #?

I grabbed my new to me 351 roller for my fairlane yesterday. Just got it tore down the rest of the way to drop off tomorrow and happened to scrub off the casting number. Tell me what you guys think. Ive heard of "F4TE but missing some letters" but this very clearly says E. Very much equipped with a roller, has the drilled bosses for the spider whole 9. Just thought i would share. Oh, from a 8/94 Bronco

Also pull the cam bearings and make sure the bore isn’t cracked. They had issues with
These blocks doing that.

You're right - I don't see any casting numbers at all.

There were FE blocks in 68 that had no numbers. On a 302 ? Never seen one. The 1980-up blocks, they moved the numbers to a flat on the lower rear of the block.
