Identifying engine. Engine number 1985 Porsche 911 3,2 Carrera

Is this the engine number located to the right to the fan, close to the
oil pressure sensor?

Looks like it says *63 107 118* or *6310 / 118*
The "stars" does not show on the pictures but they are there

Can any tell me if this is the engine number for a 3,2 Carrera?

63... means it's a 228 bhp 930/20 engine.
The third character should be a letter for the model year, from E=1984 to K=1989 ("I" was skipped), very hard to make out on your photo.
The last five digits are the serial number, 07118.

Thanks you both for the help
My car is a 1985 so i suppose that it is the original engine for the car even if the engine was made in 1984
The letter must be an E. I will have a better look tomorrow
Here is a better picture of the 930/20 number

What does your VIN look like?
It should start with WP0ZZZ91Z... and then again a letter for the model year, should be the same as that of the engine.

91= 911
Z= Always a Z except USA
F= 1985 year
S= Stuttgart

Ok, so the original engine should be a "F" as well...

BTW, where in Norway are you from? Such a beautiful country.
This is my car on the Dalsnibba a couple of years ago:
