Here's a more specific breakdown of where to look:
* On the block: The number is usually stamped into the block itself, just above the starter motor.
* On the intake manifold: Sometimes the number is also stamped on the intake manifold, near the engine block.
* On a tag: A tag with the engine number may also be attached to the engine block.
Note: The exact location might vary slightly depending on the year of the engine and the specific model of the vehicle. If you can't find it, consulting a repair manual or an online database for your specific vehicle model can help.
