There are several numbers on the engine. The one you need is stamped on a pad on the passenger side just below the head. It will contain both letters and numbers. Hopefully the PO did not grind them off when the block was decked. If you will post what you find we can decode them for you. There is also a block cast number on the back on the drivers side.
I have the block casting #8970010 ill look for the other # ..Is it on the side or back..?
