They usually have 3 black rubber plugs at the rear hub area,seen from the kickstart side.
Next to the gear selector they have a strange metal spot.
Inside the crankcase they have a 'Batman'
symbol.

The best way to identify a JET 200 engine is by the 6 digit number which is always in between 550001 and 567***. Lynx engines are also in the sequence 860*** or 880***.
The other points mentioned in this post are applicable to age/year specific engines. Basically early JET engines are identical to Innocenti ones (aparts from the casting marks and the 6 digit numbers). Middle and later production ones have the neutral switch hole above the gear selector + (sometimes) the holes for the rear brake rubber bungs.
Hope this helps. Perry
