Looks like a cleveland to me but its kind of hard to tell from the pics. The numbers should be on a small flat spot at the lower rear of the bock, best seen from underneath the truck, can't remember if its on the driver or passenger side, could be behind the starter.

the water neck seams to be on a taller surface than the dizzy and the engine looks wider than a C, so im betting on a 351m-400
