i think he said it came out of a 80's f150, around late 81- early 82 is when ford started the 50 oz balance, and that came with the one peice seal, i think in 87 is when ford started casting the 5.0 block for the roller lifters, they made the lifter bores taller and added the spider bolt bosses, need the casting numbers above the starter to figure out what year is really is, i do know that the 2 peice seal crankshafts have a little lip behind the #5 main bearing to help direct oil away from the seal as the 1 peice seal cranks do not have this, so you cant swap a early crank into a later block, if you can get the casting numbers they are right above the starter by the oil pan rail, should start with a e if its a 80's engine, D for 70's, C for 60's, F for 90's, look at this link it will have a better pick for you , hope this helps
