This engine hasn't been tampered with, look at the broach marks and font, they're perfect.
Yes - that has to be the case. In this case.
Stamp man either forgot to change the character in a rush.
Or grabbed the wrong character by mistake / rush.
One way or another - it was a mistake on the line.

Too coincidental that 336 was sent to Canada - and you found engine in Canada.
I agree it looks pristine virgin in all aspects.
Date codes should pre-date the invoice at least a couple few weeks.

i know they didnt build TA's at Oshawa - but IF the car would have been built at Oshawa - then they would have the EUN on record.



just as curiousity - i do wonder where the #332 350 Bird shipped to -
hopefully far away from canada. lol
