And just to be clear: There are only minor differences in engines from 87 to 93 and Windsor engines are not serialized.
That's a partial VIN to the vehicle it was installed in. I beleive "Y" is the year code...2000.
The block casting numbers will be on the side near the starter. There is also a 4-digit date code cast into the same area
87-90 Mustangs would have an E7TE block, while 91-95 Mustangs and F150/Explorers will have an F1SE block.
Date code will be in this format 1A23
How to decode it will be in this link

When we took a friend’s seats to get reupholstered the driver frame was cracked. The upholstery guy stated practically every one he sees ends up being cracked somewhere, especially if a larger dude drives it.
Prolly the time difference between here and the UK.I'm not quite sure your comment is relevant here....
