I thought the 1-piece main wasn't introduced until '86 or '87...shouldn't a '78- 81 application use a block with a 2-piece main seal?
Jason, look by the distributor hole for a casting date and on the small ledge in front of the passenger-side cylinder head for an engine ID code and partial VIN. This will help determine the specific application.
