The number doesn't ring a bell... Could it ba a rotavator engine? Pictures? (You can send them to me and I'll post them here for you).

Re: M20 engine no.

I have an M20 with the engine No SA86 with 22 HW also stamped into it . Can anyone give me some information regarding this? The engine is in a plunger frame and was I believe originally registered in 1952 , though it now has a 1963 (A) registration ?

Re: M20 engine no.

Could these be Rotavator or industrial engines I wonder...?

Re: M20 engine no.

No-one has come up with a knowledgeable answer. I'd suggest that the owners post some high-res images of the complete engines taken from several angles. There were casting differences over the years and it may help to narrow things down, as would other stamped markings.
