Need help with identification

[67futura]

Hey, I have an Evinrude outboard that is in good shape, but the cover has no decals or numbers. I'm guessing is a 35ish HP, bit I have no idea, and I can't find any model number on it. The number 122-18-3465 is hand etched on the flywheel, carb filter housing, and the top of the lower end, just below the engine. Does this number mean anything? I'll try to post some pictures

Your motor is a 1973 / 1974 model.

That hand-etched number likely is a previous owner's Social Security number. Done to identify the motor if stolen.

1972-74 50hp.......

It is NOT a 72 model.

Yep not a 72 as it has shifting linkage
