NUMBERS ARE AT THE CORRECT LOCATION AS UNDER THE WATER PLUG LOOKs LIKE THE DECK SURFACE HAS BEEN LIGHTLY REFURACED ON A WET SURFACER  FOR FLATNEES   FOR A GOOD GASKET SEAL ..

There is a DZ engine for sale on Craigslist and the engine pad is stamped V1007DZ and the date code is difficult to read and the casting number is 3970010.
Could I have a second opinion that this is an October 1969 build date and not an October 1968?
I am asking because the seller also has a 3279 crankshaft, which I thought was 68 and very very early 69 DZ's and would not be correct for this block.

The ad read 'decked 0.005" ...'   which isn't much, but it's clear the stamping is gone.... so it was a much deeper cut, probably with the intention of removing the original stamping (and support his current claim)...
 no it ws a ce   over the counter blk on the pad  from gm parts palnt ,

Don't know about all this other BS being talked about I was just looking for thought on these numbers. My customer bought this car which is real nice and the motor has some issues so he asked me to check it out and check the numbers out. I don't really see any of the original broach marks either?

Thanks

YES  our records show it was  sq decked   after repair of a water leak  fixed may 17 1999 ,  we have record of all blocks being resurfaced from 1974  to current machine shop records, jd

If you read the description on the papers in picture area it says the car was freshened up by RK motors. It still surprises me that what appears to be a high dollar resto, would still have the deck lid edge painted incorrectly. I am not saying this car is 100% correct, but you can see the decklid edge is incorrect from 20 feet away.

THIS IS THE WAY THE CAR WAS PAINTED FROM GM  I SOLD THE CAR MANY YEARS AGO I HAVE DEALER PHOTOS
