Engine # should match the VIN. Look on a machined pad, front left side of engine behind the alternator bracket and you'll see a stamped number that should have the car's VIN in it.

Trans code should match what the chassis manual calls for. Distributor has a specific number for specific engines. Trans, rear end, alternator, a/c compressor, all that sort of stuff will have date codes that should be a few weeks before actual car build date.

If you don't have a 1976 Oldsmobile chassis manual and Fisher Body manual, they're two of the best investments you can ever make for your car. A lot of that information is in them.
