Looks to me to be a Model LBAR or LBBR with a special air cooled radiator. Shows this engine in the book 150 years of IH. Ron Mn.

Its an IH LB series 3-5 HP engine. Some of the sheet metal is missing as a fan in the flywheel blows air out through the radiator. They were used on hay balers and potato diggers and are a good rugged engine. I have 2 of them, one on a #15 hay baler, another from a hay baler, but used to pull a sorghum mill. A very well built and dependable engine.
