The ones you are probably thinking of, Neil, are the Petter Universal. This was another flat twin engine, but of a much bigger capacity and was used to drive rafts / pontoons via a flexible shaft. This Enfield may also drive by flex. shaft, but unfortunately the drive side is not shown, submersible water pumps come to mind here.
