Above the starter location is two sets of numbers. The large numbers cast into the block will tell you the cast design date, E9XX for example, where E = decade (1980s), 9 = year in decade (1989). Directly above the starter on a small pad, it may even look like it's riveted on will be a date code for the exact date the block was cast. If I remember right the month is denoted by a letter, A = Jan, B = Feb, etc. The numbers are the day and year.
