Looks like a Rossi. I have here a Serpent P6 engine based on a Rossi with a same kind of exhaust connection and cooling fins on the crankcase.
The clutch seems a Serpent Quatro.

That is a Rossi 3 port motor from 85/86, The S power was later 87/88 which had 7 ports. Both motors made by Rossi (now Axe Rossi). If you decide to sell the motor i would be interested, Please let me know. Martin.

The liner is chromed, The engine has also deff been run.You can tell by the rub marks around the piston and rub marks around the crankshaft along the 13mm diameter part (between outer and inner ballraces). Regards Martin.

Interesting that it has the oil whole in the crank pin. And here most of us thought OS was being innovative when they came out with that.

Rossi used the oil hole through the pin for about 3 years from around 83-86, Unlike OS which didnt have any oil holes in the rod on the VZB the Rossi rod had 3 oil holes as well as the diagonal hole in the pin. Their rod had one hole through the face of the rod above the big end as rods do today and they had two more holes through the side of the rods big end.Regards Martin.
