The 340 blocks I've had over the years had a P up to 1972-3, then R.

The 0R 190026 is the engine partial VIN number on the passenger side of the block in this case. The engine serial number was stamped when the engine assembly was completed. Later on, when the engine and transmission as a pair were ready to go into a car, the partial VIN for that car was stamped.
