It sounds like your engine was rebuilt by this company and they put there tag on it to indicate the work was done by them and the size so the next shop knows it was bored to that spec.

I had a Ford Ranger in 2014 that I ground (not bore) the cylinders to 020 over, sold, and it's still running with the new owner as of last week. I never knew that was even a thing at one time.
