BF45A

A "friend" of mine jus

A "friend" of mine just gave me a older 45 honda motor.
The modol # is BF45A.

What can any of you tell me about this motor.

It is not running.

It seems to have good compression.
It has no lower unit.
I have a jet pump that I am going to try to install on her.
I need to locate some parts for her.
Air box.
Spark plugs.
Coil I think.
Shift linkage.
Shop manual.
New couling.
Just to name a few.
Did I get screwed by this "friend"? Am I going to have a hard time finding the above listed Items?
What year is this motor?

Thanks for any and all advise.
