350 or a 305??

i'm looking to buy an 84 Z28 and the owner says that it has a 350 swapped from a 91 trans am in it. since the 350's and 305 tpis are virtually visually identical, how can i get him to show me in a picture that it is a 350 not a 305? are there castings on the block at show this that would be able to be seen in a picture?
