Unusual model No. ???

Hi, my first post and I know nothing about Seagulls. Can anyone help with info re the engine I have been given to sell for someone plse?
From the linked pages to this site I have determined that with code GFP it is a Forty Plus Mk 2. Correct??
The number below that code though is throwing me. It is stamped quite clearly 1308BB7. The two websites I have looked at seem not to show/recognise this number. Can anyone help? I see from this site that BB7 is Feb 77-does that seem correct?
The engine appears ,like me , to have seen much better days and will not turn on the pullcord (then neither do I!), also it is quite rusty in parts. It has a brass tank,is that usual?
Can anyone suggest a value if sold in present condition ie as a non-runner?
I'm in Cornwall and note the comments re non-use of couriers should anyone be interested in this engine.
Any response appreciated,
Dagwood
