Default 10vt engine code "MC"

I have always thought that my engine code was the "WU" code, especially according to my haynes manual. I was able to this morning verify that my engine clearly isn't the WU code. I was able to remove the rust from the label and underneith the rust read "MC". According to my haynes manual, that engine code does not exist. Is my haynes manual on crack or am I? This is a north american car (5ktq) and north american engine.
