Well, never mind, it’s a 302... 12 bolts on 302 intake , 16 on 351w

Typically, the casting number is stamped under the bottom of the rear of the block, on a protrusion that sticks out above the oil pan near the starter. It won't tell you exactly what year the engine came out of but it will give the date the block was cast.
