I think the trim tag has been off the car. The block looks to have been milled. The engine stamp looks good, but the vin may have been restamped. Some times the vin stamp is not deep and get wiped clean when milled. Most of these big blocks don't warp, so no need to mill it level. And with todays technology in head gaskets, they seal with no issues. back then it was a metal gasket, no you have multilayer gaskets with different materials.
