Wow. I think that was fired with oxy/acetaline  The flywheel doesn't look quite right either

It's a 314 from around 1927 (or it was before it blew up ), probably the smallest version, 314/1, as it has no sight glass. As Roly says, the flywheel is not original, it should be a 6-spoke wheel. The exhaust is also a mod. Nice engine though, hope you get it running
