Need intake manifold number decoded

I've got the following numbers stamped in the intake manifold of my truck engine. Does anyone have the decode. It's incomplete but maybe I can get something out of it.

DBVE-9425? (after the 5 is ground off)

There is an 11 out to the driver side all by itself

In a circle is clockwise 1 3 5 7 & one of G/6/0 (last number is damaged)

Appreciate it if ya got it. :-)

I guess I gotta quit answering my own questions on here. :-)

Here's a great page for decodes: http://www.gearheadracing.com/Refere...ingNumbers.htm

Guessing my number comes out like this:
D = 1970
8 = year of the decade (sure looks like a B to me)
V = lincoln
E = Engine

9425 I'm guessing is the intake manifold identifier

Have no idea what comes next if anything because of the grinder mark.

Still looking for decode of the numbers in the circle.

Now that's pretty neat. You can tell close what engine you have by the number of bolts are used on the valvle covers. Mine is a 460 or a 400 since it has 7 bolts. 3 top and four bottom? Cool. :-)
