There should be a s/n stamped on the engine behind the carb or on the left bell housing flange lip.  The engine looks to me like a G-138 or G-149 to a D-10 or D-12. The Barnes pump has a diesel p/n on it. So, maybe a WD-45 or D-15 diesel ? The square drives shaft looks like an old Detroit diesel engine, but the p/n is clearly Allis-Chalmers.

oil tank and the bottom  coat of green paint  it must have been some  kind of industrail thing  looking on the internet i cannot find a picture of a pump under the distributor houseing on any d 10 or d12 but looks like there was a pump mounted their

The Detroit pump ( if that's what it is) certainly could have been because A-C used Detroit engines in construction equipment up until 1953. The green paint is confusing tho......

just looked up the parts on the oil tank  was used on the industrail tractors and ethier power steering pump or auxillery hydralic pump

Some lame observations:
That large-looking coil seems to be somewhat more robust than the oil filter that it got shoved into.

The pulley on the generator appears to be nearly the same diameter as the crankshaft pulley, which would result in a relatively slow RPM on the generator. The generator itself seems somewhat large as well (unless the photo perspective is confusing me).

Is there any possibility that this could have been a 24 Volt system?

D-10/ 5308 serial number should make the engine a G-149 cubic inch power plant. G-138 cubic inch was prior to D-10/ 3501.

what is the dash backwards 2  or5 on the end of the serial number ?  will this fit in a B or a C ?  i  bet this was one of those backwards tractor forklifts

The serial number is 10- xxxx not D-10, This makes it a 138 engine. The tank when the engine was installed in a tractor was used for the non draft sensitive live hydraulics.

If that stamped number (5308) is the chassis serial number, effective 10-3501 was the start of the G-149 engine. So, unless there's something I don't unnerstan, 5308 is newer than 3501.

Stroke is the same 138-149-160. The bore is different between all three.

The stamp is on the engine flange.
10-xxxx is a 138
12-xxxx is a 149
14-xxxx is a 160

My early D-12 has the 10-xxxx in the engine and next to it on the torque tube is D-12 1886 . This is an all original D-12 including the tires

Block sleeve bores are bigger diameter on the G-160.

well dangit  could always do the counter bores if their is enought meat in the block.      but a jump from a used 125 to a fresh 149 wuold be plenty as it does is chores just fine now    how many differant valve sizes through the engine changes?      did see some rpm changes

The same vale train kit works for everything from the 116-BE engine all the way up to the G-160. Now you can put bigger valves in the head if desired.

I bit more info to add and correct, additional info welcome!

Decoding engine serial # on 'smallblock' power crater gas engines
10-xxxx = 138ci
12-xxxx = 149ci setup w/bypass oil in newer 234353 "dual use" block *
149-xxxx = 149ci setup w/bypass oil in old 227541 block
15-xxxx = 149ci setup w/full flow oil in newer 234353 "dual use" block *
160-xxxx = 160ci 
3-xxxx = 149ci in h3 crawler
H-xxxx = 160ci in h3 crawler

* 234353 "Dual Use" engine blocks were backwards compatible and could be used with both bypass style and full flow oil pressure systems because they had the ports, passages and plugs for both styles.

For anyone looking I have a NOS G-160 bare block available.
