I have an engine block that is supposedly a 351C. It has been lying around for a few years. Is there a stamp on the block that will confirm that this is a 351C motor?

Marlin is correct. Additionally, the oil pressure port is in the back of the block, not in an aluminum bar-extension off the front, and there is a full-height cast-iron block extension that accepts a plain flat plate for the back of the water pump. A 302/351-W uses an aluminum front block extension that mounts the water pump & fuel pump, since the block is flat Main bearings in a 351W are 3" dia while a Cleveland main bearing is 2.70" dia.

Also the water outlet/thermostat housing is on the block above the timing chain vs. the intake manifold in the 289/302/351w motors.
