Hi. Looks like a 730E lightweight. If you google Villiers 730E engine, to see these engines. I haven’t got a manual, but someone on here might have. It does look a bit tired, but apart from the starter looks complete.

Hi, had a better look at the 730E and your engine cover looks a bit different. You can probably see better having the engine their. So ?.
