Questions about engine parts 394's?

Hi All
I came across what I believe to be 394 parts but my search efforts to find out for sure what year has provided mixed results. Anyone know off the top of their head what I've drug home?

One mostly complete engine, block 577476 then the heads have 20 cast into them. The oil pan has the big filter shaped thingy sticking out on the passenger side. It has a 2 bbl intake #580676 and I believe a cast iron timing cover

Then a bare block 585786, 4bbl intake 580677 and an aluminum timing cover.

Both blocks have 4 1/8 cast into them which I believe was the bore showing them to be 394's.

Any help would be appreciated. John

That #20 cylinder head points out to be a '61 non-Starfire engine

585786 is a 1963 or 1964 394, 580677 is a 1962 394 manifold.
