I'm only going on the information that you have given here, so I can't get into too much detail without more information, but this will give you more information than you had previously! Although your VIN# on the '72 year won't tell you, if its a 442 or not, you can uncloud some information on your car, so here goes!
Your VIN# should be like this!
The First Digit (3) = (Oldsmobile) Division of G.M.
The Second Digit (should be one of these, F,G, or J) = Model or Series
The Third and Fourth Digits (should be one of these, 57, 77, or 87) = Body Type
The Fifth Digit (should be one of these, H = 5.7 350v8, 2 BC, (160 HP), or J = 5.7 350v8, 2 BC, (175 HP). (J) has Dual Exhaust!
The Sixth Digit (2) = 1972
The Seventh Digit (Z) = Fremont, CA.
The Last Six Digits = Basic Production #s
Give me the Second, Third and Fourth Digits, and I'll be able to break down the VIN most of the way for you! One more thing, if you can get more information on your car, check for the W29 option code, because thats the 442 Appearance & Handling Package. If you have anymore questions that I can answer for you, just let me know!
