Engine model number

I have recently bought a Johns

I have recently bought a Johnson 200 HP 1985 outboard.While looking for the model number a found a S/S plate attached to the carbs with the number 392604E 175HP 27.FI. Is this the model number as I cannot find another number on the engine. I have searched this site but cannot reference this number. Any useful info will be appreciated. The engine number is A038786 which I have not confirmed yet.

"Hi Joe, Looked all over and could not find model number. The core plug only has the engine number on. I spoke to the previous owner and he said it is a 175 hp block which was reconditioned to a 200hp. He said the modelnumber is (392604E 175HP 27.FI). I still cannot find any reference to this number in the parts catalogue. Does anyone recognise this number?
