I just changed the oil in my 302. With the filter it took 6 qts to reach just above the "add" line. Which would be 6-1/2 qts.
Could have sworn it didn't need that much...
As for engine ID numbers, I think they are stamped by the starter. You'll have to decode it (can't help with that).
It's fuel injected? If so there is an easy way to tell the difference between 302 and 351. Egr valve has a tube running up to it from the lower intake on 302's. On 351's the tube connects to the exhaust pipe. There are other differences, but that's the only one I'm certain of.
