Ok, If it is an Osprey and 7hp, then I can offer you some help. The Engine Model, Spec and Serial nbrs on the Engine (1980) in my original Thread is 170702 - 5638-01.
If you want to check further, then just count the number of Cylinder Head Bolts. If you have 9, then it should be 17cu inch 7hp............... A 5hp (14 cu in) engine has 8.
I have PDF Files of both the Illustrated Parts Manual and User Manual that I can post here or send. Or, you can enter the numbers into the Briggs and Stratton Website Manuals section and download your own.
The User Manual has most of the common service procedures and Data you'll need.
Any other bits you need, I can check my Manual for you.
Would it be possible to get the manuals at all? I know it's an old post but I would be very interested for my 7hp osprey 24
