Those types of carbs only work in the orientation shown, so that motor was designed (or adapted ) to work like it is on the stand. It appears to have a handle between the cylinders. So I'm thing as a drive engine for a pump not as a outboard engine.

I have a J25 1.5 hp
Guessing from the looks and age, carb configuration seems like an inboard that would mount to the keel/ keelson. But then again, surely would be a little engine for that application. A stationary powerplant normally would have a crankcase casting with a heavier or more structured mounting boss for flat surfaces.

I see that the A25 was a mid 1920's but opposed twin (Light Twin and Waterbug models), whereas the mystery motor is not.
