Get under the engine bay and uses a flashlight to find the VIN. The VIN stamp will vary from vehicle to vehicle, but will be mounted somewhere on the engine block. Some older vehicles will contain a serial number instead of a VIN. Match up the VIN from the engine block to the VIN on the vehicle. If the engine block has a serial number instead of a VIN then contact the manufacture dealer to see what serial number the original engine block had.

i HAVE AN ENGINE IN MY 1963 FORD TRUCK. iT'S NOT THE ORIGINAL ENGINE,i KNOW IT CAME FROM A 1978 . HOW CAN I FIND OUT WHAT KIND OF 78 IT CAME OUT OF?
The only way to tell is if there are numbers wrote in chalk on the engine. then you'll know it's not the original engine for sure. but other than that you wont know.
The GMC Sierra light truck has been in production for many years. It has been produced in many engine and transmission trims. If the vehicle is original, there are multiple means to figure out the engine type. The first method involved opening the hood and looking for an emissions label. If this fails the vehicle's VIN number can be recorded and consulted with a GM dealer. These two methods work if the vehicle has an original or specified engine (has not been replaced with a different or custom motor).
Depends on the specific engine, need to know what vehicle and year.
Need to know what engine it has.
For one, so you'll know what replacement parts you'll need, you'll be able to look up fluid capacities, etc.
The engine makes it a vehicle.then i dont know.
We have to know what kind of vehicle and the engine .

If the engine on the vehicle is still the original from fabrication, the engine fabrication model serial number should be on it for identity trace.
Need to know what engine is in the vehicle to answer.
First off, you do not have to remove the engine from any vehicle I know of to replace a timing belt. Secondly, your vehicle has a chain, and not a belt.
