Ha my GM 6.5 has been like this for 6 years, I keep refilling the coolant every time the low coolant light comes on, this is in a Chevrolet 3500 truck. Runs perfect but smokes a little white on start up too.

That is the VIN/serial number. Does not show up in the historical VIN database (no surprise). Red arrow is where it would be if it were there. Not being in the database is expected as the database contains trucks that the Army still had in the 90's. Yours was clearly surplused in the the 60's.
The lube order calls for OE-30 which is "Oil Engine 30 Weight". Modern equivalent is Delo 400: This oil has the additives needed by old engines.
