My 66 ss chevelle has the vin on the pad on the original motor my car was even registered with the engine # I had to supply a picture of the vin on the post to get it registered with the complete vin.

Best you can do with the 67 -72 trucks is the date code ,engine would have been made a short time before body .

On trucks GM knew engines would be changed out regularly as they tended to be abused.
