Even if it was converted, since its a Magneto Ignition, aside from possibly burning out some 6 volt lights if you put 12 volts to them, EITHER a 6 or 12 volt battery should crank the starter over to get it running (Unless it was actually converted to a 12 volt starter which I doubt, in which case it needs 12 volts to crank it properly).
If you stuck a 12 volt battery in, it will indeed crank it over and pretty fast if its still a 6 volt starter, and since its a a Mag you wont harm the ignition
Id venture a pure "guess" it was and still is a 6 volt Positive ground system.
Since its an H and they arent that difficult to crank over, I'd use a 6 volt n wire it Pos ground n keep it at 6 volts and use a good heavy duty 6 volt batery and 00 gauge Battery n Starter n Ground cables, and get a good 6 volt genny and VR.
