Year of a Mercury

[SURFERJRB]

I have a Mercury 200 hp V6 Black Max EFI. The motor came off a panga from Mexico that was confiscated by the Boarder Patrol. I bought it at a government auction they could not tell me the year because all the identification tags had been removed. I think its about a 95 or so? For $2000.00 price for the motor I took the gamble the motor runs great but I need to figure out what the exact year of the motor is. My question is there a way I can find out what years this motor is?
