It's the (in)famous "Stove Bolt!" Could be a 216, but it might be a 235 'babbitt basher!' Lovely oiling system with troughs under each connecting rod and a lil scooper on the bottom of each rod! Also, amusing to watch running, for as the vacuum advance worked, it turns the *whole* dizzy! This was also the first engine used in the 1953/4 Corvette, with sidedraught Carter YF carbs.
