-Are the huge plugs the main thing that indicates its a 427 side oiler? I have seen the same ribbing on the 428 CJ engines, but i dont remember plugs that large.

-I dont see a black line in pictures 3, just thread sealant that drooled down from a plug and a shadow.

-Dont spray it with WD-40 if you plan on storing it. Over time, WD-40 will glaze and turn into something that looks like a peeling polyurethane coat.
