    I have the identical motor — it has no stamped serial number anywhere…. just casting #s. Welch plugs are blank.

    It’s a derivative of the Evinrude sportsman (2.5hp – 3.3hp)…. the opposed twin motor with the “cheeks”.

    Like most small evinrudes of the era, the skeg on those motors is extremely fragile.

    It’s got Evinrude’s poppet valve drown-it-to prime-it carb — very messy.

    It’s a sweet running motor — make sure the poppet valve moves up on inhale and returns to the seated position.
