Hi cbarrett, welcome to the site.  One of our members, Sandblaster, put together this awesome reference list for KX500 part numbers.  I think you will be able to find your numbers in the first couple of columns.

Here is the 500 information:

Here is the 250 information:

Perhaps I have a dirt bike addiction?

03 KX 250/88 KX 525/2017 KX250F - Goliath
17 KX250F/04 KX250
04 KX 250 - Lunchbox's Bike
05 KX 125/144

Hell Yea! I looked at most of all the charts and i did not see anything with the BL in the engine ID.  Maybe when it was stamped it did not punch through.
So if you guys feel pretty confident about it then I'll go with that.

Thanks Guys! :-)
