Default Original motor vs. replacement

The "68 Z28 whats it worth" thread raised an interesting question. Namely, does a non-original motor detract from a car's appeal, numbers matching status or value? I'am defining the original motor or block as follows:

1. The one it was born with from the factory.
2. The one installed by Chevy Dealers such as Yenko, Motion, Dana, etc., that went to the first owner.
3. The one installed as a warranty repalcement.

All opinions welcome Gents - feel free to chime in.
