The brackets that bolt to the block are almost certainly an Olds-only part.

I didn't even think about the truck possibly being a deisel, sure would explain the olds engine though. I will do my best to remember to take those pictures for you. It is probably going to be a couple weeks before I get the time to go pull the motor out, but if I get 'em I will shoot them your way.
