Default 409 Engine Number & suspension query

Now safely have my 409 delivered from Victoria, via CEVA.
To get the rego here, I need to find the engine number on the unit, if it is stamped. Brass Bristol has a reference, but I have seen mention of the actual Chrysler no. being above starter motor on left hand side. Local cop will love that!

I also note the car sits 3 cm lower at rear on left hand side. Torsion bar adjusters were at same setting and whilst I can level the car by winding one right out, I wonder if the arm was put back one spline wrong when some rear supsn work was done.

Electric Kenlowe fan motor - any suggetsions for Aussie source? I have email UK in the meantime.

Well pleased with the car; beautifully built
