3970010 shows up on both 1968 327's and 1969-79 350's
could be either originally.
without disassembly no way to really know for sure.

Set the motor to TDC, pull the #1 spark plug, put a small wooden dowl rod in the cylinder, rotate the engine and measure the stroke. 3.25" = 327, 3.48" = 350

What is the stroke if you put a 327 crankshaft in a 350 Chevrolet?
Putting a 327 crank in a 350 makes it a 327. (3.25") You can't put a 327 crank into a 350 without changing the pistons. The piston would be 1/4" down in the hole, and would have very little compression.
How can you tell the difference between a 327 engine and a 350 engine?
Very hard to tell without pulling a head and measuring the stroke, but there are some signs that might help. If the factory intake has an oil filler tube and there are no bolt holes in the ends of the heads, it's probably a 327.
Will 327 pistons fit in a 350?
A 327 and a 350 share the same bore diameter (4.00"), but the stroke of the crankshaft is different. If you put 327 pistons on a 350 crankshaft it would put the piston 1/4" out of the hole at TDC.
