I know that the blocks are different between auto and manuals, but if I am looking at a bare block, how do I tell which one it is? DOOCE

The oilway into the centre of the oil filter head mounting boss is either plated over or undrilled depending on the age of the block. The dipstick hole is undrilled too.
