If that is all there is on the engine number tab, then it is an engine that was originally fitted to a car in the US. The HK at the end may be the give away as to what car it was fitted, but holden did not use the suffix.

All early HK GTS327 and all 1968 Parisiennes and Impalas assembled by GMH had Tonnawanda engines, so it could be one of them. Just check the K on the end isnt a 5. If it is its an original HK GTS327 engine that has been decked and only the Tonnawanda stamps remain. Only hassle is the 0709 doesnt ring quite true. Check its not 0509 also. If its defintely HK on the end then its one of the following:
1968 327 250hp 4BBL Powerglide from a full size Chevy;
1969 350 300hp 4BBL Powerglide from a full size Chevy.
