You really gotta want it to find it. On the front of the passenger side of the block is the serial number. This number is covered up by the brackets that hold the alternator and lower radiator inlet. So to see it you have to take all that off which includes the AC compressor, etc.

If the tag is gone, it's because the motor dropped it's dowel pin breaking the case, and when the shop replaced the gear case they never removed the tag from the old case and install it on the new one. You're screwed...I don't know how else to track down what number was on there.

If you can get the serial numbers from the injection pump, Cummins might be able to back track to find the engine number it was installed on at the factory...long shot, but that's all I can think of.

I told him where it is located on the block.

Here is where the block serial number is located. It is on the right front of the block underneath the alternator/water inlet bracket.
