Re: [OMC-Boats] MODEL#

OMC usually rivited a number plate on the front of the PORT side (Drivers side on a US car). If you can't find any such plate, you would have to reseach foundry casting numbers on the block. I have no info on those.
 
A 1970 OMC Buick V6 Engine number can be looked up at: > http://www.hhscott.com/evinrude/stringer_models_72.htm <http://www.hhscott.com/evinrude/stringer_models_72.htm>
