F3674 is not a typical L-134 engine serial number. Can you post some photos of the engine? There are some other indicators that can help determine what you have.

I seem to recall that I once worked on a portable welder that had a Willys engine in it. IIRC, the engine serial number started with an F then had four digits. IE: F-1234.
Pictures may tell us if this engine is out of some portable equipment. So X2 on the pictures. |

I have already started on the block , so no complete motor pics.The distributor has a vacume advance on it. The intake manifold
at the carburetor is running perpendicular to the exhaust manifold. My cj3a intake is running parallel to the exhaust manifold. It also has a fiber timing gear.Oil filter is on the left front corner as my cj3a also.I installed the motor for fit up before the teardown all seamed to fit just fine , transmission , motor mounts , etc. I did not have the hood on not sure of carburetor clearances.I'll a temp pics of the block.

The F3674 doesn't look factory. Wrong size, wrong font, upside down, and was likely done by hand one character at a time. The original number may have been lost if the block was decked during a rebuild. A rebuilder may have stamped it to be able to identify it for inventory or warranty information...
Anything stamped on the underside, where the oil pan bolts to the block? ETA: good info in the first post here

Those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it... Welcome to 1930's Germany
