That # didn't bring anything up for me, Here is where it should be on a 250 between the motor mount and the dipstick. The # near the dipstick should be the month and year of manufature. I don't know about 292's tho.



Once you get it put it into a google search with the word "casting" and it will tell you what it is. The difference between a 250 and 292 are the same as a 350 to a 400, same basic design, just bigger alot of brackets arent' interchangable.
