Default 03-04 Cobra Engine Block VIN tag location?

I need to know the location of the engine block VIN on the 03/04. I am in the process of purchasing the motor and would like the VIN off it but the guy cant find it. Can anyone help me out? I want to call him back before its too late tonight and get this deal done. Thanks

You have someone serching for something that is not there. Why do you think the vin is on the engine?
Or are you talking about the block part #

I just assumed the VIN would be on it like the Probe (I am a Probe GT guy) which has a tag on the block and transmission case. Is there anyway to identify it definitely. It looks like a cobra motor, but I want to make sure it is...

I have one number from the block RF.2C5E.6C064.AG

My Dad has now seen the motor in person and believes it checks out. Thanks for the tips and sorry about the premature question

The wipple on top should be a decent hint along with it being a 4v

there should be a vin tag on the block somewhere. i don't know where it is located on these cars but i am pretty sure that it is a mandated thing to have it stamped on the block.

My biggest concern was to make sure the forged internals were in it. Not that they had been swapped out for the N/A motor stuff. The guy I bought it from was a really nice guy once I met him so I do not think there are going to be any issues. So... here it is:

http://flamingsquirrel.org/gallery2/...serialNumber=2

25,000 miles on the motor, stock supercharger, 2.7 pulley, upgraded supercharger belt idlers supposedly,

http://flamingsquirrel.org/gallery2/...serialNumber=2

4,000 miles on the transmission, brand new OEM clutch which I've been told to ditch. The deal also included all the wiring, fuse block, sensors, etc. from the Cobra except for a starter and a flywheel.
