Anyone able to provide info on an engine with a stamping of 901/38 and serial number 6404328?

It appears to be a big bore for either a 911 or 914-6 but I can't find where it fits in the vin/engine serial number range.

Correct, but to refine that a little it is a North American engine not Sporto
911/36 64y0xxx ROW
911/37 64y7xxx ROW Sporto
911/38 64y4xxx NA
911/39 NA Sporto

y = year (0, 1, 2)
if production exceeded 1000 engines it would roll up example 6405xxx for NA

916 engine series 63250xx
