Conversation
`Contract.call` and the async variant routed user-supplied block hashes through `parse_block_identifier` / `async_parse_block_identifier`, which called `eth.get_block(...)` purely to read back `block["number"]` and then forwarded that number to `eth_call`. The execution-apis spec lists block hashes as a valid default-block parameter, and the major clients (geth, reth, erigon, nethermind) accept them on `eth_call` and `eth_estimateGas`, so the lookup was a redundant round-trip. Forward the hash (normalized via `to_hex_if_bytes`) directly. Existing parse-block-identifier tests are updated to assert passthrough. If a node does not support block hashes for these methods, its native RPC error propagates to the caller unchanged. Closes ApeWorX#3646
