The pad says V 41 on the top and 11 18 HP on the bottom. I looked hard for the 3 behind the 41 but it's not there. Must have missed the stamp. The casting number is 2205697-4. I imagine this is a run of the mill 413???

Nothing different/unique about the blocks. As mentioned V41 is a 64 413, HP = High Performance. My guess is that it was original to a 1964 300K. Do you have a picture of the pad? The 300K engine font was typically different from other 413 stampings of the era.
