Gday to all.
Not new to this site but haven't been here for yonks!

Sorry but been real busy.

I am in Australia, I imported an 85 LX 3.8 convertible in 2014.

FINALLY got it out of storage a couple of months ago and preparing for a roadworthy.

OK, so if you are still with me, my question is regarding engine number:

Where is the number located on the 3.8 ?

To pass a roadworthy I must be able to show the inspector the engine number.
I see a decal on the valve cover with a number but surely there is something somewhere on the block?

They won't accept a valve cover decal [because you could just swap valve covers engine to engine].

Can anyone help please?

Many thanks

Cheers
Gary
