Hello Rick, I would guess that the person is misreading the number. Instead of: 18V-850-AE-L 564, try: 18V-890-AE-L 564 If this assumption is correct, then it becomes a 1976-ish California spec. engi

As Blake pointed out the KAJ... is for a ZB Magnette. The other number appears to be an MG 1500 engine, and possibly something a little out of the ordinary. This could be a bit of a longshot, but he
