Engine Vin Decode

Morning-

I have a 71' Supreme with a non-numbers matching 455, 396021F (sans serif) with E Heads. I got this number 30M303762, from the pad on the left side of the engine under the power steering bracket. Do I have enough digits to determine what this may have come out of? Thanks for your help!!

Tom

Unfortunately, all the VIN derivative tells you is that the block came out of an Oldsmobile (3) from the 1970 model year (0) built at the Lansing, MI assembly plant (M) with the last three digits of the VIN being 303762. Sorry.
