Default 66-427 CX no casting #?????

I found an FE block with no production code. It has vertical ribbing on the skirt, additional webbing on bearing supports ala CJ, SCJ and 427's. It is marked 66-427 on the right rear and CX on the left. The freeze plugs are press in.

It's date code is J16 (October 1, 1966). I have been told that the extra ribbed blocks got a C scratched in them. What if anything was the X for???

Anyone seen a block like this before? It seems to be never assembled standard bore. What would it be worth?
