Vehicle tag not sure for what

[Mikes5ate]

Hey so I’ve found this tag on the ground that fell off my mustang just wondering where it goes if anyone knows and if anyone can decipher what it says! Thank you!

From research it seems to just be an engine tag that is fastened somewhere on the engine 73-79, by oil filter or intake manifold maybe?

That's the engine ID tag, on a 351C it's captured between the coil bracket bolt and the bracket itself.

351 displacement
C - engine assembly plant - Cleveland
73 - engine model year
6 - engineering change level
J29 - assembly date - Sept 29 1972
K604A - 49 state, non-thermactor EGR 351C for FMX transmission, non AC.

A very valuable piece. Do NOT loose it........... especially if it's actually off the engine in the car.

Rather than risk loosing the tag off my engine, I keep it with other original documents in a folder.
