Hydrolic head so it's probably late '86 or later.
What's the block code?

Pretty small pictures.

Pully/bracket pics?

I found the block number 068103021AC/011 and the head number is 068103373D
and the head is a HYD lifter.
So from this I am not sure what year it is.

The block code should start with 2 letters.
It's on that flat spot by cylinders 1 and 2.

The ME block code looks to be made from 1986 to 1992. From the Jan 26, 1989 (26-1-89) date on the block, I think this answers when the block was cast.
