What I would like to know are what these other letters/numbers indicate: CON4-K90 GM22 or a link to visit.

K90 is the date code. K is the 11th letter, so that corresponds with the 11th month, November. 9 is the day of the month. 0 is the last digit of the year, so 1960. Your engine was built on November 9, 1960.
