    Mark The engine plates are not Greeves design, I have drawings for both the single (9E 32A etc) and the twins (2 3 & 4T) and neither resemble the plates in your bike. The cylinder is definitely not 1H or 2H and neither is the flywheel side crankcase half as the upper dowel pin is not in same position, also the small rectangular hole in casting just behind the cylinder is for the 9E/32A type 2 pin lighting socket. The 1H & 2H also have wider engine mountings.
    I would agree with Ian though that the flywheel looks the same as the 1H / 2T type. So I think the engine is basically a 9E /10E
    It beggars the question as to why someone would make bespoke engine plates when Greeves ones would do the job!
    Have you a side on pic of the whole bike Mark, whats the frame number?

      It makes you wonder if some creative soul built an engine from disparate Villiers parts?
