I wonder if it is a L48 or a L82 motor? Do you have a picture of the valve covers?

I know it has two bolt mains and a cast crank. There is a casting number on the rear top of engine that is 397XX1X - but the X's look like they could be a zeros sixes or nines - maybe eights. There is slag where these numbers are.
Also in chain housing on block there is an 010 and a G26. Cams look pretty pointy on the lobes - not a heavy breather - but I doubt many were in the late 70's.
