If nobody told you before, you're an amazing storyteller, I especially liked the "allowed farmers to have the power they needed to run whatever they needed to power wherever they needed" part, and I'm not even joking, bless. Good luck with the restoration.
By looking at the magneto its around early to mid 1920s older ones had a low tension mag like a webster tri polor with no spark plug they had points in them.😊
I've been collecting these for 40 years they are not that hard to find. Go to a show sometime you'll see all kinds of them . Any way congrats on finding one that is complete.
Quite a while considering everything is froze up, it will all need to be inspected thoroughly. It’s all gonna depend on what the cylinder and piston looks like They’re fairly simple machines, not much to em.

A delaval is also a lauson. Alot of engine companies back then would sell there engines to other companies who would put their own tags on.

There's always a need for a portable handheld power plant. 😂 I love it.

It should not have grease zerts on it it needs larger greas caps on the mains and get rid of the one on the oiler oil goes in there not grease.
Cool find, how long will it take you to restore?

You probably meant early 1900's
I did yes very few hit n miss engines existed at the end of the 19th century.
