the t number relates to the porosity and quailty of the block not age, anything over 15 is good

won't idetify the age.

IIRC the T number is the number of block cast from the sand mould. Moulds were used up to twenty times , each time they were used they lost a little sand around the bores which resulted in thicker bore walls more suitable for big bore conversions
