Scott, I think your main objective here, was to find out if this engine looks
to be a 289, and if it looks like a candidate for "rebuilding", Right ?

The members here have joined in and gave you a lot of input. It's NOT a
289, It is an "FE" big block engine, and one that has laid out in the
elements way too long with that wide open carb. That engine is probably
filled to the brim with water and rusted-up to the point where it is NOT a
good candidate for rebuilding.

I'm sure you can find a rebuildable 289 fairly easy, by placing some want ads in your area...
Good Luck with your project, what ever it is...
