A little advice with a grain of salt.

Second photo, is likely a manufacturing control number for Mercury Marine, the company that built the engine for GM. There is a number stamped next to be bell housing that will have then ending digits of the vin on it, 01278. Hard to see and find. This will tell you if the motor came originally with the engine. I tried to attached is a photo example but could not.

The transmission tag is indicating manufacturer in West Germany is correct for the car. Later replacement transmissions were built in the US.
