FE motors stopped in 1976 so it can't or shouldn't be a 360. The 1984 engine options may not have included the 400M. They had 300 6 cyl, 302 V8, 351 windsor V8, 460 V8, and 6.9 or 7.3 Diesel V8. But I could be wrong that the 400 wasn't available in 84 F250

No, you're entirely correct, the 351M/400 engines were no longer available after the
1982 model year. See (for example):

If this 1984 truck has a 360 in it, it didn't come out of the factory that way.
