OS Canada Remaining numbers are the sequence number. Basically the serial number. It's this number that would be on the engine, rearend, and trans.
Another place to look for the serial number on the engine is over the oilfilter. Stamped in either the rough casting or a milled section.
Sorry to break the bad news, but in 68 the SS 396 had a 13837 code. Not 13637 which denotes a standard v-8 Malibu sport coupe.
The code IV on your engine is from a 325hp 396. But not for that car as per the 13637 code.
