I have a '75 2.0 liter 914. VIN is 4752909774. I was looking for the engine block serial number, and found it in the location for a 2.0 engine. However, based on what I am seeing, the serial number is showing for a 1.7 liter block as it starts with "EA". But then the number doesn't really match up with the charts showing the engine block numbers for 1.7 liter engines because all of the EA serial numbers I see listed online start with "00" after the EA. And also, the engine serial number is in the correct location for a 2.0 liter block. So, I'm stumped.

The other unusual thing is that the last digit appears to be a 0, but it seems smaller than the other numbers. The serial number looks to be EA0152330. But again, the 0 on the end looks smaller, like maybe it really isn't part of the serial number. Any help to shed some light on what this means is greatly appreciated! Here is a pic:
