Briggs Stratton 23 FB 203511

I am looking for information for a Briggs 23FB 203511 engine. I have it apart for the first time today. Had it around a number of years but it just peeked my interest enough to remove the flywheel today. I removed the coil assembly and I assume that the points are in the housing on the crankshaft inside the coil magnet housing. I removed the head and the valves seem to close and peeking under the valve the seats look good as well. Cylinder walls look slick and it didn't have compression. Oil is black as coal. I have not checked between the piston and cylinder wall with a feeler gage yet. Not sure I will check much farther until I am sure I can get parts to make spark. I was told it had run the year before I bought it about 15 years ago at an auction. With the oil as black as it is if it had been running it sure must have had a lot of blow by. Always been in the dry. I might take the doohickey off the crankshaft in a bit to see what is in there. Thanks for any help any one might be able to give on this antique.
