put up a pic of the rear of the block................If its got tappet chest covers and 11 studs and a non drilled petrol pump then this could be a 'S' block ,,,,,,but pics would help identify.................

well it's not a cooper S as it would have a AEG* casting number... sounds like a 1300 GT block from an Austin...
