Is there a way to tell which series AU an engine was pulled from?
e.g a wrecker may claim an engine to be AU3 but there is no car to prove it thanks. I6 btw.

There is some info somewhere on this site that explains how the VIN & engine numbers work... maybe search on "VIN". The 2 alphanumerics to the immediate left of the last 5 digits tell you the year and month of manufacture.
