To30 fired right up

Ok so I went downstate yesterday to work on my grandfathers tractor I bought. It fired right up within 8 turns of the motor. Woohoo.
There were questions that the motor may not be original.
column serial number is to 69614
Cylinder block # is 1750339M91
Block serial number is 2249
Block casting number is Z129A600N right below this number is a big zero.
On the right of the number above is B25Z
There is also a lager number 3 cast in the block under the oil fill spout at the bottom of the block by the oil pan gasket.
The tractor does have a exhaust leak at the manifold pipe conection. It has the wrong clamp. I need to get it home next weekend so I can work on it. I hope the manifold is still in good enough shape to order the tailpipe and clamp to correct this issue.
With the block casting numbers listed above along withe the serial numbers can anyone help identify the motor year, thanks John
 
Boy that's good news. Usually in a family business adventure... you always come out with the short stick. Too bad your granddad didn't give it to you years ago, when it wasn't such a pig in a poke- but if you weren't interested- or too young at the time... yeah, this is how it goes.
Well, as things pop up, this is where to ask. Show us more pics too. Good luck with it!
 
The engine serial number should have six digits STAMPED into the engine serial tag. That should be under number 3 spark plug.
 
You have a 1951 Ferguson TO 30. As long as you want to start working on it the year is not as important (nice to know) as the motor. When ordering parts for the motor you just need to let them know it is a Z 129 Continental engine as long as the casting number below the engine dip stick shows that and I assume that is what you are saying in the Block casting number. That engine serial number tag I mentioned should start Z 129 then the six digits.
