I agree

Looks like DX ####. I can't make it out but lots of carb numbers start with DX. Looks like the housing for a single induction carb.

Look up "Kingston brass carburetor" you might find a match.

It appears to be a Marvel Schebler, like here: https://www.terapeak.com/worth/marv...ractor-spoker-d-marvel-schebler/112063168208/

NICE! thank you

That would make sense. A lot of the early marine engines had Schebler carbs. I have a 1904 with one.

1902 Schebler carb likely for a Waterman Outboard.

That's exactly like the schebler on my 1904 Page two cycle marine engine.

DX 286
DX 3 is what I can make out on the OP's carb.

....Yup , an updraft carburetor.

Down-draft. The air comes in from the top and goes out the side.

Just rebuilt one on my Ford 640.
