Can I find out if what i have is a 9.8 with the parts number stamped on the side of the engine like 837-5284 or 46172. Somewhere down the line of owners someone remove the serial number.

No 9.8 engine that I found in the parts book had those numbers. However the 75 (7.5HP) does. The 46172 is the part number for the exhaust manifold cover. The 837-5284 is the part number for the block (7.5). I did not look at all the year models due to time, but a 1974 model 75 had both of those numbers.

I found that 110's and 7.5 also carried that cover assy. I am not at work so cannot pinpoint a year.<br /><br />TMD
