I troll around in my engine bay, and what do i see?

2.5 L staring back at me. i found this between cylinders 2 and 3. if this is correct, the guy that changed the engine in my car gave me the engine out of a taurus. any fellow ford experts able to confirm my findings?
btw, tempo'* came with 2.3 liters, and the 1st gen base model taurus came with a 2.5 liter stroked tempo engine. set up to get more torque for the tarus
