Yes. It's the original "matching numbers" motor.

To clarify, most engine blocks received a four digit number stamped by DeTomaso on the upper, left rear of the block, just below where the cylinder head mounts.

If you see such a number, then, yes, keep the block. Otherwise, just a run of the mill Cleveland block. But those are increasingly rare, especially if cylinders are still standard 4" bore.
