The cast date on my engine is May of 1923 (If I am reading it correctly May 31, 1923). This puts it very late in the 1923 model year. Further, the body is a low hood. Model Ts were in quite a transition during the first half of calendar 1923. Early 1923 Models had a low hood, later 1922s had a steel firewall and so forth. Mine crosses both lines.
