What do the three x's "XXX" on the 302 short block? Is that just a stock clock?? I was hoping I might have something aftermarket, but it is not a 4 bolt main. Any idea?

The only blocks I have personally seen with the "YYY" on them was the 86 blocks.

85 and 87-93 I have only seen the "XXX" on them.
