Default 356 engine numbers

Did you ever get an answer on these?
Looks like the picture and stated engine number doesn't match for 6041880. It is actually 601830 and that engine appears to be a 1960 356B.
The 600398 is a 1956 356A and the 73041 is a 1959 356A.
The K 063779 is not Porsche. It could be a VW perhaps. I couldn't find engine #'s for vw"s
To confirm the engine type and model, look for the engine Type number. All three should be 616/1.
