The engine was last offered for sale in Italy in 2021. At the time, the seller wrote that the differences in the font of the numbers suggested that the engine had been re-stamped. The cylinder head was original from the GTAJ and not a new die-cast. The seller had purchased the block and cylinder head together. The oil pan was aluminum, and the seller also had an original magnesium pan separately; it was magnesium-colored, not black. The block was complete with all accessories, including the original starter motor. It was offered as a fully restored engine and was bench tested, with photo documentation of the work performed. It appears that this engine was sold to the current seller in 2022, but the tiles in the background are the same as in 2021.
