A CE block does not take the place of an original block. Let's say that a '68 427/435 horse Corvette lost its block six months after purchase. By the time the dealer ordered a CE block and got it into the dealership, that block would be a casting date too late for the car and the casting number may be a different number altogether. Very few cars kept their warranty paperwork from the installation of a CE block, either. A CE block would have a casting date too late for the car and a casting number most likely different that the original block that was installed in the car. I think the best thing you can do if your car is missing the original motor is to try to find a block from another car close in VIN to your car and put that motor in the car.
