I have a friend who just got the is block from a family member who had it for years. It does not have the correct crank, but I wanted opinions if the stamp looks to be original?
I have not seen the block in person or seen a vin stamp (yet).

I can email the larger pic to someone if they can can post it. thank you
-
I resized it, blew it up enough to see the stamping a little better - looks legit. I don't see any negatives -
Regards,
Steve

Austin sent me a large .png file but still insufficient detail, which I reduced to under 200 KB for posting for him...
I don't see any issues wtih the stamping, but image detail insufficient to see broach marks!
-
Please email me the full size photo. Thanks.

I will get another pic from him with more detail and better source of light.
So I was over at his house yesterday, and found the stamp by the oil filter. After about an hour of wiping it down with lacquer thinner. The stamp appeared.
L91**4884
I am guessing it was suppose to be 19L504884, but the 1 and the L got switched in the gang stamp. the 5 and 0 you could not make out, but for the time frame of (0925) I thought a 5 and 0 made the most sense. The 9 1 and 4884 were the most visible.
I tried taking pictures but my camera phone could not capture it.

Legit stamp.
-
Just in case the car is out there likely VIN 124379L504884
-
Definitely 884? 9L504984 is on the 1969 Orphans list...... so close
-
984 isn't a Z. ;)
-
If you're not in the know..... you can only wonder!
-
It is definitely 4884. No doubt about that
