I got my information from the former chief metallurgist at Ford's Cleveland foundry. He was very adamant that any stories of higher nickel content were rubbish and told me he personally analyzed pour samples on a daily basis to monitor levels of the iron mix.

Dave Shoe backed up this story using the blueprints he copied at Ron Miller and John Vermeersc's shop. They plainly do not show higher nickel content for any particular type of FE block. Levels of phosphorous and chromium were adjusted around 1971 but there was no significance to the X marking either.
