My local napa gave me a new Federal Mogul main bearing set. It has penciled on 365-390-429 Cadillac. The part numbers are 993 M 30. But aren't there several different sets involved from 56-67? Would someone be able to Id this part number? Please?

Huge piles of engine parts, brackets, tin, Hydramatic & Jetaway parts,  thousands of stainless moldings, dozens of perfect sedan doors.

Crankshaft main bearings diameter is :
* 2-1/2" on 331
* 2-5/8" on 365 and early 390 (through 1962).
* 3" on late 390 (1963) and 429
* 3-1/4" on 472 and 500.

Rod bearings feature the same 2-1/4" diameter on 331, 365, 390 and 429.
472 and 500 rod bearings are 2-1/2" in diameter.

Hope this helps :) .

Here are the parts book pages. It probably won't help with the part number, but it shows the different offerings for the years.
