Both;
Motor = A machine that converts other forms of energy into mechanical energy and so imparts motion.
Engine = A motor that converts thermal energy to mechanical work.
An electric motor is not an engine, but a gasoline engine is a motor.

1966/67 Lincoln's came with its larger brother, the 462.
1964/72 FT engines: 330 2V M/D, 330 2V H/D, 361 2V, 391 4V / 1973/78 FT engines: 330 2V M/D, 361 2V (359), 391 4V (389).
The 359 is a detuned for emission purposes 361, the 389 is a detuned 391 for the same reason.
An FE engine most of y'all have never heard of, the 361, used in 1958 Edsel Pacer's & Corsair's only.

You've forgotten about something, the Lincoln 430, which was also used in 1959/60 T-Bird's.
1966/67 Lincoln's came with its larger brother, the 462.
1964/72 FT engines: 330 M/D, 330 H/D, 361, 391 / 1973/78 FT engines: 330 M/D, 361, 391.

The 360 wasn't introduced until 1968, used thru 1976 in F100/350's only.
If FE engines are big blocks, what does that make the FT 391, a bigger block?

An FT 391 is the same bore and stroke and CID as the FE 390, the extra number is to differentiate the engines, just as the 389 does.
