After an inspection last night (thanks Alan!) some questions were raised
regarding the engine in my '51 GMC pickup.  I'm hoping some the experts
out there on the list can help.

The number 3836848 GM is cast on the top of the block just above the
intake/exhaust manifolds.   The number 3836340 (with "GM 1" just below)
is cast and found just below and in front of the distributor.
The number W7876 is stamped onto the block on a flat plate just behind
the distributor and finally the following is cast just above the
starter: CDN 4 (or CON 4) L164.

Any and all information regarding this engine would be greatly
appreciated!  By the way this is a 9300 series GMC PU (the Canadian
model)  Thanks.
