My 68 273 did not have any thing stamped there and I have seen quite a few other motors in that time period that that had nothing stamped there. Any idea why some don't have nothing there?




Maybe yours was a Warranty block? Marine block?

Actually, I've never seen a small block that did not have the stamped numbers on the front of the block. But they are often stamped shallow, or incomplete, full of paint or grease, and its very easy to miss them if you are not specifically looking for it.
