Timing belt plastic cover should have a stamping too.

My guess is that there's an engine number somewhere.

Should be a 2.2 or a 2.0 cast in the side of the block. Also the 2.2 has hydraulic lifters (factory) while the 2.0 has mechanical rockers. 2.0 has 1 idler pulley for timing belt, 2.2 has 2.

whats the point in swaping them ? does a 2.2 make that much more power or is it parts are just easier to find

Under the exhaust manifold there will be either a 2.2 or a 2.0 cast into the metal. The numbers are almost center of the block on that side and a few inches underneath the exhaust manifold. The 2.2 does make a small amount of power over the 2.0, I mean small. Parts are just as easy to find for both blocks. Main difference I have seen is the 2.2 has the hydraulic lifters vs the 2.0 has the mechanical adjustable type.
