If the starter opening is on thetop and the distributor is on the right up rite it is basically a WC-WD-WD-45,D-17 engine. They were all basically the same. there is a serial number on the rear of the block. Check it out. Also, if you could give us a picture it would help.
Good Luck!
Bill Long
Ps: if I am correct parts are available

"mag on right hand side distributor sets vertical not horizontal"
That is a 45 engine with a distributor, won't have a Mag.

1953-1957 There should be an engine serial number on the left side behind the carb in a raised pad. Get that number and we could figure the year it was made.
