"LB" is not a Ford number, it would have been *A serial number*. When a bare block replacement was sold it would not have had a number stamped on it. The dealer would have stamped the old number on. Could also be later block that was made for industrial use and would have been stamped with that companies number. Send me a PM, Tom's shop, The Model A Ford Works, is in North Portland and he should have all the parts in stock. He is not open for walk-ins right now, only by appointment.
