Detroit 353 diesel -- aluminum block? How to tell?

Detroit 4-53. It was a 212 cu in, 4 cylinder,
2 stroke, 140hp, with a blower.

Tim:
I take it that when you say "blower" you are taking about a
turbocharger?

Not sure why the operator's manual and literature call it a "blower"
rather than a turgocharger. Looks like a turbocharger to me.
