Is it a square ingot? You may have Ajax Bull Babbit, which was a lead based babbit. Check what you have versus the old ads in this google book: http://books.google.com/books?id=Q9tLAAAAYAAJ&pg=PA316&lpg=PA316&dq=ajax+bull+babbitt&source=bl&ots=-bgi7oXAbn&sig=lLYmXp2OL7Ix9bfmrM_2nYgSK10&hl=en&ei=mwQoTMyvHIS0lQfYycSTAw&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=3&ved=0CB4Q6AEwAg#v=onepage&q=ajax%20bull%20babbitt&f=false

Did a little more searching. If your ingot matches the pictures it is 17% Sb, 7% Sn, balance Pb.
