Help identifying engine in my New-To-Me 1984 VW Rabbit Diesel L

(1/1)

TinkeringCarpenter:
Hey there! :)
I recently acquired a 1984 diesel VW Rabbit Diesel L
This is my first diesel automobile, and i'm having a hard time identifying the engine.

the code on the engine block is "068 103 373 f-2br brazil vw 14"

It has VW stamped on the engine, but i'm wondering if this engine is not original with the car, as I got it from an engineer who loved to tinker around with cars and planes.

ORCoaster:
Tinkering, That is the part number for the head that you are seeing.  Crawl under the oil pan with your head towards the passenger side front wheel.  Take a bright light.  Shine it up from underneath on the back side of the block.  You should see 1.6 D if it is a NA diesel with a standard block. 

Welcome to the club.
