Is there any identification numbers anywhere on a given head to determine
what engine it came off of?

I have an early engine #1010918 that I pulled out of a 1975 F1 frame.  The
engine was stuck.  When I removed the head I found a little 6mm cam holder
nut stuck in an exhaust valve.  I'll guess that this was the reason for the
freeze.   I assume the head is from an F1 because it had the factory F style
4 into 1 exhaust .  The exhaust flanges are different the earlier K models
and won't except a factory 4 into 4 setup, right?

I'd like to rebuild this engine one day and use it as a back-up engine for
my 1969KO that I'm restoring.
If anyone knows how to distinguish between head types,  I would love to
trade this perfectly good F1 head for a comparable one to fit my early
engine.  I can send pics.

Thanks,
