| That sounds like a casting number. Is it raised, or stamped into the metal? |

NOT a 226 ,guys guess is wrong ,He was only guessing right !!! ., It is a 149 engine like a D14 .Take a GOOD look at this picture ,check out the V - Cover and Govenor
 Plate for pump .

| Mag or distributor is missing. My vote is a G-149 Power Unit. Lots of Power for a wood splitter. |
