Help on a White engine on my 71 Deuce, id tag.

Hi guys yesterday I was going through my filters on my 71 M35A2, and in the process I removed the side panel where the mushroom is and was trying to read the very faded tag, riveted on the passenger side of my non turbo multi fuel.
I could barely make out that it was a multi fuel and had a serial stamped on this tag, along with some other data re contract etc.
The important thing about who made it, was very hard to see, but I was able to make out the word "WHITE" in faded upper case characters. I thought that the 71 Deuce had a Continental engine. Would Continental and White have been in bed together back then?
Maybe I am looking at this wrong?
I just wanted to know what engine I have.
I know Hercules was in the loop also, but if I read correctly that was on trucks built in 1970 and back.
Please put some light into this if you can. I don't know if after the word white, there is something else because I can't read it...
Thank you much
Tony
