What are the head casting code and head date casting code?

Does the valve cover attach with two studs through the top of the cover, or with four screws around the base of the cover?


Thanks.
No captains bars, and unfortunately, no head. it has 18 bolt holes. No serial numbers - it has a blank boss, so maybe a replacement engine block?
So all that from feb 53 - seems to say an early 235, but with no captains bars, is it full pressure?
