Verifying a 305 from a Crate 350

I want to verify the size of my engine. It is an aftermarket engine I was told and wanted to verify it is a real 350 and not the 305 that came stock in the car. Is there anywhere I can look on the block for a number to look up or anything? Im sure the person who sold it to me is telling the truth but I just want to verify before I start doing stuff. Thanks in advance.

check on the back of the block right behond the drivers side head, on my LG4 it says "GM 5.0 LO" LO for low output, check to see if it says 5.0 or 5.7

Actually, your block says 5.0LG, "L" meaning liters and "G" meaning Gasoline.
