Engine numbers

heya i was wondering if anyone could help, i am trying to work out just where or what my engine came out of. the number suggests its a type 3 but the numbers dont match so i am a tad lost


the number starts with TO479 ... the type threes used the prefix TO but no 479(that i can find) they had 478 and 450 ... \
