In Aust anyways, All titles show the car's owner details,the model,year, make, VIN AND Engine number. If you remove an engine,you are required to have the engine number inspected at the DMV and a title re-issued with the correct details.
If someone steals your car for the engine,or if another car is re-registered with your engine , even years later, the engine number can be traced.

Hi Dave, all Titles here have the VIN on them, and then the engines have the vin stamped on them as well. It would be a simple thing to prove that engine came from that Judge if it was the original block. However in earlier years there can be some missed stamps maybe this was one? Certinaly there seems to be more to this story.

Here is an example of a pontiac vin stamp on a block:



All newer cars have the VIN stamped.

I've never seen a Pontiac VIN stamp like that before, not even the EUN number - here is a Pontiac VIN stamp in its traditional place down by the timing cover
