455 out of chevy

i picked up a running 455 olds from a 69 chevy pickup. It was converted to a camper body sometime back in the day. The engine pad is not machined or stamped. Is that because it didn't come from a car? Any know if they would of transplanted an olds when it was converted? It's painted chevy orange uggh! It has c heads with a edelbrock performer intake. Also got a 400 turbo long shaft transmission. I'm assuming it's a 69, is there a way to figure that out? Thanks ron
