Exclamation Buick 215 in cutlass convertable,did factory do this?

I am currently looking to buy a 62 Cutlass convertable from a private owner
on the east coast.Pics of the car look good,but for one curious picture of
the engine compartment.There's a BUICK 215 engine in there! Owner says
it was in the car when he bought it and explained that "they did that
sometimes."

Not being familiar with Oldsmobiles,can anyone tell me if a Buick 215
installed by the factory in a 62 Cutlass is possible? Of all the years I've
been around cars,(a lot of years) I have never seen this before.

Guessing a previous owner may have done this as an engine replacement.
Owner's "they did that sometimes" answer is red-flagging me as being
bullshit.

Can anyone tell me if he is right?
