This is the Ford Service Replacement balancer for the 289 Hi-Po / 289 K-Code. It was never used on production engines.
The service replacement balancers for the 289 Hi-Po / 289 K-Code motor had a number cast into them which was C8ZE with an A underneath it.
There would also be a step down in the outer surface where the timing numbers are, as in,
it would go straight back for like an inch & a quarter or so, and then have a little step for the last half inch or so on the end closest to the timing chain cover.

Ford 289 Vibration Damper. C8ZE-A part # cast in. Service part, built from 1968 and later.
This is original production part.
It seems Ford used existing C5OE centers to produce the very few balancers needed for AC equipped 289 Hi-Po / K-Code 289 motors in 1967.
By 1968 production, the center casting changed to a C8ZE-A which also became the default service part.
If you try to fit an original 67 A/C crank pulley to the C5OE balancer you will see that it will not fit or will fit so tight as to bind on the outer ring.
The '67 A/C pulley would not fit in the C5OE damper so a new outer ring was made to allow it.
Since this was an alteration to a production part but a very small quantity, the casting number was removed and re-stamped.
Plans were in place for a "Hi-Po 302" for '68 (dropped for the also dropped 302 street tunnel port) manufacturing changed the blueprint to effect the changes.
The casting number was changed to C8ZE to reflect the updated part. Since neither of the intended use engines were produced, the dampers were sold over the counter.
