2. If I'm not mistaken it's what we called a "Johnrude".
Your basic Johnson/Evinrude two stroke. Anybody who stocks parts and services those venerable motors should be able to maintain it for you. Unless there's some major mechanical issue they last forever. Mix the gas/oil right, keep fuel additive in the tank and run the carb dry at the end of the season and it'll serve you well until the cows come home.

They're really simple, like a rock. A rock is a great tool for driving tent stakes. If, by chance, you break the rock in half you'll have two rocks to pound tent stakes.
