hello

i think its a J.A.P engine or one of its "clones".
i have a 1929 J.A.P engine 350 sidevalve that looks identical.

please take a brush and clean it , somewhere around the cylinderbase on the aluminium you should find some numbers
and letters.

then we can find out year and size of the engine.

The engine is not mine & I don't have access to it. It is in the Kilgarvan Motor Museum, Ireland. I thought the oil pump may help identify it.

It looks similar to a Enfield 350cc engine but i'm not sure it is. If it is, it should have Royal Enfield cast into the cover the oil pump is attached to.
