Thanks to everyone for your quick responses. So it sounds like it is badged a 
400 but really a 402.

Huuuuuuuuummmmmmmmm.....

Is a 402 simply a larger bore or stroke on a 396, or a different motor all 
together?

Question for you big block experts.

I am looking a purchasing a 1972 Chev Cheyenne C20 with a big block and only
40,167 original miles.

The owner is a friend of a friend. My friend says the truck has a 400 big
block. Now I am positive it is NOT a 400 small block (huge valve covers).
Late sixties there was a 396, then I have heard about a 402, but never a 400
big block.

What big block engines were put C20's in 1972?

I do have pictures if this would help someone.
