Default Re: Engine block stampings

My 70 Z engine was assembled in Flint and deck stamped V0729CTB.

I bought this car in 78' from Original owner

What is very unusual (I would think) is that the VIN 01N5xxxxx is NOT stamped in the normal bellhousing flange area.

I found the VIN # stamped in rough cast material roughly between the left side soft plugs....

Has anybody ever seen something similar on a FLINT small block.

Does anybody challange my assertion as being phoney, restamped or otherwise forged ?????
