It is not an original number.

Did you look at the number. This engine number is recorded in an original GTS327 already, but it has been altered. I wonder if someone has made a clone engine number?

It does, no such thing as series1 or series2 though. HK had type 1 327 and type 2 327 but that is it
That engine is from an Elizabeth assembled GTS327. I think the original car's full details are recorded, it is probably best destined for that car.

Without the 5 it is an original number recorded in the past. Whether the stamping is original or the block is original, no idea.
