I have just found this engine. Seems to be an early Palmer with no transfer port/cover. Any thoughts?

I have looked into my files, no name so far ?

Brandon needs to have a look inside at the con rod and see what that looks like or has stamped on it. |

Searching files Finds this early Palmer B
With a 4 hole flywheel !
These holes are significantly larger than the engine under discussion ??

I have the earliest known Palmer B
November 1899
I think the engine Brandon has is between the first Palmer style and the early B style.
The connecting rod may tell.
Take a look at the my B in the Sylvester post from a few weeks ago.
