General question about the engine

I have a jet star 88 Celebrity sedan and a holiday coupe. The numbers I found on the engine of the sedan are 381917 trying to determine what size engine this actually is. The 2dr coupe has 381817. Just trying to get the right parts for what I got. Below is the 4dr sedan’s engine numbers

381917 is a 330. Are you sure you have a 381817casting number on the other?

That is 330 engine. You might look for the head number too as it might narrow down the probable year.

No it doesn't. Look again, It will be the same 381917. Both are 330 motors.

Yes 381817 at first glance but rust and dirt made it look like an 8 my bad it is a 19
