I had the same problem some years back with a V8 LH hatchback then an LX V8, its damn hard to see you need a mirror and a light and you get down low on the side of the block (in the grease and goo) looking for letters about 20-30mm high cast into the block about the sump - and of course I couldn't find either.

Had to presume both were 253, pity, a 308 isd worth plenty more, especially in a Torana !

Must be an easiet way.
