You are half right.
A 1974 Targa engine does not start with a 614-, it starts with a 634-. A 911S Coupe and a 911S Targa from 1974 all start with a 634, not a 614. A 614 is for a regular 911 and regular 911 Targa.
A 1975 Targa S and a 1975 Targa Couple start with a 645- if they are US Cars. If they are not US cars, they would be marked with a 635-.
So the car you are looking at does have a 1975 engine from a 911S USA Coupe or Targa if it has a 645-. If the chassis is a 1974 it should have a 634-.
What month and year was the car made? If the matching is important to you, you may want to look at another car. If not, it would be money off. Probably around $4K.
