Ive got a engine with the yellow EX sticker that was given to me as a high milage runner out of a Syncro. It does not have a engine # below the breather tower. The space there is blank. Is this normal for a EX engine? The case looks in very good condition. I probably going to rebuild it to a 2.2 and add some AMC heads.
