Is the serial number of a 1970 440 underneath the oil pan on the rail?

I have looked all over the engine and can't find any stampings other than the top engine pad and the VIN partial on the pass side.

I have always read the description that it is on the oil pan rail under the starter opening, but I have never seen a picture of where it is.

Your confusing the years, Ma Mopar put the engine I.D. #s on the 1969,70 and 71 on the machine pad on the passenger side of the block underneath the motor mount right above the oil pan mating surface, 1969 had the VIN on it, 1970 and 1971 had the sequence numbers of the car stamped on them,not the first five digits of the VIN like 1969 had I think that is correct anyways The upper pad should have F440 and some other numbers and information stamped onto it if it is s real 1970 OEM production motor
