On the top of the block in front of the third or fourth cylinder, you 
will find a code.  More than likely, you will have to clean the motor to 
know which code it is, scotchbrite works the best for me...  If it is in 
a Scirocco, more than likely it is a JH, unless it has been installed 
after it left the factory...  The numbers after the two letters are a 
serial number, which can tell you when it was produced...
