Default 1958 Rebuild plate

A guy in NSW found this engine build tag on his ex Aust Army jeep. Seems to be dated 3rd March 1958.

The bore and crank dimensions are stamped N /K which may refer to: Not Known ?

Interestingly, in 1958 , the army were still rebuilding WW2 jeep engines when their remaining jeeps were about to be disposed and replaced with Land Rovers.

I can recall seeing the army rebuilt GMC CCKW engines in crates at Hunter Rd, Camberwell many years ago.
