You will find the number on the most forward journal of the crank. 21 is cast on the rod cap. Ford didn't put 352's in anything past 73, possibly earlier. 360, 361, 390, 391's (361/391 were only installed in trucks or FT motors). Your crank should have a 2T or 2TA if it is a 360. If it is a 390, then you will see a 2U/2UA or 3U

Some rod numbers for you:
"long" rods for 352/360 - C1AEA
"short" rods for 390+ - C6AEA, C6AEC, D1TEA ....
The "short" rods are thicker/wider at the crank journal and the 352 was not used after 1967.
