Later bracket with plastic tilt lock, skeg missing, later dome nut, no idea what’s going on with starboard side of the tank. Getting close? :D

The engine mount bracket is incorrect, there should be two clamps, one securing the drive tube, the other securing the mount bracket. This is mine.

Yes, basically, a later crankcase on an early motor, something you would see on a later little forty or an early LS, with the FV 2525 number restamped, which looks nothing like the original stamp.
