2468130 is a 383 year 1959-71 the clock tells you the hour the block was cast a D means day shift, N night shift, there should be some numbers just above the the clock ie 3.12.70 or 3-12-70 this gives you the date the block was cast. My info does not have the meaning of the 9 at the end of the number or the LL under the number. Check the numbers etc on the I.D. boss, passenger side of block just below the head on the flat surface next to the distributor base. That set of ID's has a lot more info

E is the year code for 1969.

12 5 is the assembly date December 5, 1968.

Henry if there are any letters or symbols after the last numbers they are the secondary info about the engine ie oversize bore, tappets, etc,etc.etc.
