attached are some images that might help find the serial number. And here is what the numbers mean.

Sample code: EJ251AW3AB
12345678910
digits

1 and 2 are the engine type (EJ)
3 and 4 are the displacement (2.5l)
5 is the fuel feed system 1 is d-mpi sohc and 5 is mpi turbo
6 is exhaust regulations A is for california don't know what the others are
7 is the trans type that was stock for the engine w=MT x=AT
8 is for minor changes 3 was the number done to this vehicle (3)
9 and 10 are codes used for ordering parts. (AB)

This information is from the technical manuals so I don't know what every thing means but I hope it helps.

you'll need to post pics of the engine as a whole then. some turbo subaru engines are: EA81T, EA82T, EJ22T, EJ20T, EJ25T. Maybe search for engine pics on the net of those types and post them here or give us a link to verify what you have.

Early STi didnt have red intake manifold. Its only from Ver3 (maybe 4)
If it has turbo and air-to-air intercooler, its EJ20G
EJ20K and EJ207 from newer STi has red intake manifold.

Picture will be very helpful here.

or post the serial number of the turbo, you can guess from there too.
whats the color of the intercooler? black or silver..
Its EJ20 for sure.
