1972 Cutlass engine identification

I bought this 1972 Cutlass not long ago, trying to identify what engine this may be. Appreciate any input.
Thanks.

To me, it looks like you have a 1964-66 330 c.i. engine. I suspect the #1 heads would make it a 1964.

Those #1 heads also have the one-year-only shaft-mounted rocker arms. Parts for these are difficult to find.
