Steven: Your engine having that Z casting code plus taps for checking oil level and smaller filter could well be an engine from a SMTA. However you do say the codes were front timing cover. What do the block casting codes say? The heads will also have a code of their own, what are they? Block and head will have part numbers as well.

Another reason you may want to know is that same basic engine had it's cubic inches increased a couple of times through M, SM, SMTA, 400 and 450 production. I'm not sure whether that occured at exactly model change time or at a certain serial number. Ask that question. Some of these YT guys know the answer.

The hydraulic manifolds leading to quick couplers had a design change somewhere between 400 and 560. Early 400 plumbing did extend at an angle while 560 came out at 90 degrees. If you note what CNKS said, not all changes occured at model change time. That change may well have occured during 400 production and some 400s plus all 450 and 560 are the same.
