That is the C8ZE-B HiPo head. The only head that Ford included the
HP in the casting. It is also a smog control head with Air injector ports.
The picture needed to be wider to get the casting date and the part number
cast into the head.
As far as I know there are no real indicators of a HiPo engine. Visually
there is the Thicker crank damper but that is only 1 part. The HiPo engine
is a combination of specific Ford parts. You need to be familiar with all
of them to know a true Ford Built HiPo engine.

I did a search of Google images under hipo 289 and found this image. Would
this "HP" be the HiPo indictor?
