Chevrolet didn't want any confusion either, so the capital "eye" was used for the number "1"...
Engine serial number T103171B breakdown...
T = 1-1/2 ton truck
103171 = unit number starting at #1
B = have no idea why the "B" is there, Chevrolet didn't use a sufix on engine serial numbers in 1937. Is the B the same font, size and in line like it came from the factory or is it different like it was added?
When you can, post a picture.
