Post the engine number. It's stamed on the block at the base of the generator support.

Those valve covers. Has the cylinder tin been hacked? On a type 1 there should be a rectangular section that you run two screws through to fasten it to the head.
Certainly looks like it. 009 type dissy

Has it got a single or double hole where the inlet manifold bolts to the head?

the engine number will be behind the fuel pump near the case seam as its a type 3 block and will probably start with a T
thats why its blank under the genny stand and the original oil filler/dipstick hole is blocked off with a plate
also notice the lack of a welsh plug in the oil gallery below the dizzy and the bug style dipstick has been drilled in on a funny angle all signs of a type 3 block

i'm assume it was from a baja or buggy by the side sealing tin being cut off?
