One way to know if it's a carrier engine is it should have two large oil lines at the rear left of the engine just behind the place where the engine no. is. They may have been pluged off if the oil cooler is diconnected. I can't tell from the picture as it is on the left rear. If it has just small plugs then it is an automobile engine. I see that the engine has a few modern upgrades like the starter is the automatic bendix instead of the mechanical one, a remote coil, a car carburator, and an alternater.
