I have a 25" motor that came out of an 1951 Dodge pickup. The numbers on the block (left front) reads 117-10212 can some one tell me if that is the correct engine ?

Well, a 25" motor must have been transplanted in the 51 Pickup unless maybe it was from Canada. The truck engine numbers for that era started with a T so I can't find your number for you in my engine list.

A stock engine # for a 51 1/2 or 3/4 ton pickup sould be T306.

Check that number again.

Is there another place on the block that I should look? This number is on a flat on the left side front of the block just below the head.

Thanks

If it is a Canadian built Dodge Truck, it would have either the 218 or 230 longblock 6. If this is a USA truck it will either be a 251 with the W or S missing, or maybe it's a 265 Industrial 6. If it's the industrial, youd be a lucky guy, nice big powerful 6 to power your truck with..........Fred
