It's a sears number, tecumseh used different numbers on sears equipment. Someone will be able to tell you the year.

143.615072 = H50-65316H

I think that would be a 1981, not sure though.

Robert a picture of the motor might help date your engine to a specific time frame by the shape and different logos if there are any decals left on the shroud.

its a 1971, from one of the 10" wheeled Roper bikes, I believe that is a DC 3amp setup for charging a battery on those.

All the Decals are gone the previous owner did a Rattle Can paint job that needs to go away.
It also runs fine.
