The engine is in a '47 AD 2 ton, but not likely the original as it has a shop tag showing a rebuild (with bore .40 over).
The block number is F1127JC, The head is 3836848.
The valve cover reads Chevrolet. The engine was painted blue (which may not mean anything).
Thanks, Dennis in Shawnigan Lake B.C.

The code looks simple once you know what it is.
