VIN help

I recently picked up a '77 Chatau and having some trouble with the VIN. I've tried searching for it but have come up empty. The VINs E22AHY69459. If anyone could help in decryping it, I would appreciate it.

They never put an FE in a van, so no 390's, and the dual tanks is a popular option, a friend has it with the 302.

anyone know the size of these tanks? I wasn't gaven a book and the hayes manual doesn't say. I did read somewhere that the rear can be an 18 or a 22 and the saddle can be a 35.
