the only numbers I can help with are the 205 which means 2.0l with larger mains, usually injection, usually unleaded head.
The 85 means the casting was first used in 1985 which seems to be a contadiction with the 205!
If you can keep you head, whilst all others around you are losing theirs, you are not fully aware of the situation

That is a casting number, not an engine number

if its got a "205" mark like these:
 
Pinto - 205 block
 
pinto - 205 block
this its the later/stronger 2.0 injection type block (i.e you can bore it out to 2.1 safely and its got slightly stronger conrods)
and as above the 2 letters at the start of teh engine code will give you the date when you look it up here:

(its easier to ID them this way than with the casting numbers)

I know thats the casting number thats why i said the engine number is what can tell you the year month
i was not very clear in what i said
ps the engine number is on the exhaust side near to the alternator and it is stamped on
