Can someone look at this case and tell me what engine type it is... the guy is selling for his dad and doesn't know. It's right in the next town from me.

Randy,

See if the seller can check 2 points on the block for you, small bit of cleaning with a paper towel wet with Dawn or similar dish soap and water would help - damp, not dripping wet.

#1 - main location for model# of block, located in front of the case breather/port on the flat surface that resides between the fan housing and the case

#2 - secondary location on some blocks. Diagonal flat metal area just behind the transmission mounting flange

*if neither location has a number located/stamped on them then it is probably a factory replacement case used to replace a bad case. The factory released these specifically as replacements and the dealer or service owner was supposed to stamp the block with a designated number prior to the install/replacement (many didn't do this).

This is the "EASY" way of determining what he has (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer3.gif)

I don't see the 914 dipstick tube. Not sure if it's just the pic, though.

If it really is a Bus motor (it's offered with other Bus parts, it seems) then the dipstick and oil filler will be poking forward out of the bottom front of the case. They would wind up going through the firewall in a 914, so they're not so great to use.

You can block off the hole where the Bus filler goes, and add the tube for the 914 dipstick, but it is extra work.
