Loose like someone took a black widow case and tossed a TD .051 (the single groove on piston indicates this) cylinder and piston along with a product engine backplate.

It's what I call a 'junk box' engine. I have built a few of them myself.

Get a new PL or add a bvit of oil to it as some engines feel like they have a lack of compression when dry.
It there are thrust washers it most likely uses a cox international killer crank as some of them need thrust washers.

Looks kinda like that "Banana .049". Never seen that kind of NV spring.

Wish I had put a thrust washer on my Killer Bee, it badly needed it.

It's pretty low on the skirt though, wouldn't be helpful in flaring the piston for better compression.

Won't it help a worn piston or cylinder though? That's what I gathered from a friend of mine.
