Ok, got out into the garage tonight to look at my stuff, and here goes:
320 crankshaft, no markings other than "K" and "4" on the last balance weight by the rear main, see attached pic.
320 Rods: part # on my rod is 440774, then a "P" in a box, then a 7. On the other side if the rod is "E558", no other markings.
On my 374, I can't see anything anywhere, which leads me to believe that it's the same as my 320 crank.
As a side note however, on my 320 crank, there are numerous places where material has been machined off, presumably to adjust the weight.
As for the heads on my 1955 320 Hash engine, part # is 440854, these are the long-reach spark plug, fully machined heads. The parts engine I have has the cast dome heads, IIRC.
