Yes and an original one at that due to the "YBB" being cast into the front by the water pump.

For some reason someone has ground the 5 out?

http://www.fordopedia.org/parts-catalog/pinto-ohc/B1.30 I looked at this screens it seems that there is OHC

I looked at some pictures from 205 block and saw the code is identical to my own point of encircling

The YB is merely based on the Pinto which is OHC! 205 is the type of block, it has nothing to do with the engine number!

The 205 actually used to be a 20 or T88 block, the 5 represents 1985 which is when the block was revised.

They were just selected Pinto blocks picked for there tighter bore tolerances! The way of distinguishing them is the YBB number that you have, another way is to look by the dizzy, you will find four numbers, Cosworth asked for only grade 2 and 3 to be delivered to them, so you should have a number like 2222. This represents the tolerances for each bore.
