left lane: Bob is correct 251068 R1 is a part number. All IH part numbers of that era ended in R something.
The engine serial number is directly below No. 1 Spark plug, on a machined flat surface, and the numbers are about 1/4" high and stamped in place rather than cast in place. If your tractor is very far into Super A production the tractor serial number and engine serial number will not be the same, not even close.
The surest way to tell an A from a Super A is factory hydraulics, A didn't have htdraulics, Super A did.
If you want to find the year of tractor, go to casting date codes. Day and month by number and year by letter. About 1/2" high digits with what looks like round head, blade type screws cast between each of day, month and year.
