Need Help Identifying Oldsmobile Engine?

[bnwbass]

Hello All,
Hopefully someone here may be able to help me identify from what I am told is an Oldsmobile engine. I am doing a restoration on a F1 Ford Truck. Two photos left and right angles of the engine. I know the block codes are on the timing cover shelf but hard to see, may need to steam clean first. Thought I would see if anyone may know from only a photo?

Thx
Bnw

It is a gen one motor, if an Oldsmobile. I am not familiar with them.

It is a 1st generation Olds motor. It could be a 303, 324, 371, 394 from the 50's. The casting # will tell you for sure.

I know squat about first Gen Olds V8's. Looks like he is planning to build it. The guys on CO think it is a 303 converted to a 4bbl or a 324. Either way, a very cool project.

That's cool if he is going to build it. An Old powered Ford!!
