that number on the seller's pic just looks like a p/n of a engine block part, but not a engine number, should be something like this
engine code 326S2 01 A engine p/n 11 00 1405513 engine type S52 B32
engine code 326S2 02 A engine p/n 11 00 1406689 engine type S52 B32

The sellers is in a different city so I知 going to have to drive up this week. So when I see the car I値l verify these things; I知 pulling the vin off the back of the head, and if the sticker is missing I値l reference the trickier area at the bottom of the motor, then ill reference the numbers you just gave. Thanks you致e been a super big help I値l keep you posted of what I find.
