Very simple. Look on the block top surface behind the intake manifold. On the 289, there is a depressed area between the intake manifold rear and the bellhousing surface that is rough in casting from side to side. On a 302, that area is only half of the way from side to side with the passenger side of that depression flush with the monting surface of the rear of the intake. hope this helps.
