New guy here...i just picked up a vw rail buggy......got the motor running & it was blowing smoke..(blue smoke)..so i removed the moter & took it completly apart...rings bad, bearings bad, so a complete rebuild is underway.. Here is the question....the number on the generator stand is B 6286208. I have been all over the internet & cannot find it listed. Sooo, i here to ask the experts for help to tell me what i have.....year & such.....on a side note the crank measurers 55mm.....pistons 85mm..wrist pin 21.97mm. Any & all help is welcomed . thank you

From what I have read so far a B is a 1600 single port.
