the year could be from any were from August 1960 to July 1965. its very hard to tel try looking for a letter before the first digit of the serail number.
However, if you go to "TheSamba.com" and click on the "Technical" tab at the top right of the page; they have a fairly complete listing of all Volkswagen-issued Chassis, Engine and Transmission serial numbers for air-cooled VWs going back to the early '50's.
If the serial plate on your engine has been riveted onto it, then it's probably a factory rebuild--and it may have been rebuilt to accept the installation of parts designed for use in other engines ( it's fairly common to find older 1200 cc engines that have been bored out to accept larger crankshafts).
Best guess is that your engine has been rebuilt using one of Volkswagen's stock blocks, that originally owned a serial number that began: "AD 397589"
