Ok well I just uncovered my engine number...I have no clue how to decode them so if you guys could help me out that would be great.

VK 131800 (maybe VR..I'm not exactly sure cause the second stamped letter isn't very clear its worn.)
W-098783

Is this even the right number? I got it off the passenger side of the engine and on a little block right in the front of the engine directly under the head.

I tried looking around the internet but couldn't find anything...well I found stuff just not with these numbers.

Thanks

EDIT: I've been searching the internet and I think the number I posted might just be the ENGINE ASSEMBLY DATE / SUFFIX CODE.
