Ever-since I bought the car, every time I register my car (yearly registration), the engine number is required (stencil). I really don't know where the location is. The chassis number is easily located. I just have to pay somebody to process the registration which include stenciling the engine number. I wish I could do the stenciling myself to avoid additional expense just to get the engine number and processing.

Engine can be identified by the eighth character of the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) stamped on metal plate located on left side of dash panel. The VIN is also stamped into passenger side of engine compartment bulkhead.

Stamped on top right front of engine block.
