1600 twin port engine from a 1971 model...
check the glass to see what brand it is...
German glass is usually SEKURIT ...

that would be a late 72/early 73 1600 superbug motor.
I'd be highly surprised if its a german import unless it was a semi automatic
the only late model beetles that were fully imported were semi automatics and a few personal imports
