Got the engine home safe and sound.  It was pretty much as advertised.  
Only thing that I have found so far that it is missing is the 
thermostat, bracket, rods, linkage, and flaps.  A little unfortunate 
given how hard it is to find some of these parts.  It has clearly been 
apart at one time to remove these items.  The stock muffler is in 
really good shape, minus the resonator tailpipe.  All of the carb parts 
and stuff are there.  The cooling tin looks to be correct since it fits 
around the dual port manifolds nicely and it is missing the hole for 
the cylinder head temperature sender.  It is all 12V. (chokes, cut-off 
jets, generator)

I doubt that the case is original however.  It is a "U" case.  Aren't 
these the FI cases?

Either way it will be a  good base for me to build another Type 3 motor 
for Jane or Sophy.
