The 55 is correct.
But the other two are not what the box describes.
Both are non standard with the extra colour added to various bits.
The GTS is definitely not a GTS as it has a vertical intake indicating a much earlier model probably a 2.49 DS (size is usually stamped inside the back plate.
The 049 is not an 049 as they have a screw together cylinder, not bolt on. Also looks affair bit larger than an 049, maybe a 1.49 RC AC?
All good engines, just not as listed, the main worry would be the GTS as a real GTS is a high price exotic thing.
Oh crap, apologies to the bidders on the 2 engines I have emailed you both personally, due to the "PAW 15 Mk1 GTS" getting up to £21 and not being a GTS I have pulled it off until I can find out what it is, if its not worth £21 I don't want to keep it running with the chance of getting bad feedback. I know you can add a note to tell people of the mistake but its not very clear.
As the "049" was only at £3 I thought it only fair to end this one also until I can work out what that is. It would seem from another ebayer who contacted me that based on dimensions I sent him it is a PAW 19 I also noticed on the crankcase cover it has a very small number 19.
If anyone wants to check out all the engines I shall be selling there are pictures here.

If I have identified any of them incorrectly I would be very grateful if you could let me know.
I might have to put another Oliver on now as I know these are identified correctly.
I think it may be wise as gossie suggested to post the pics of the next lot on here first for a couple of days and make sure everyone is agreed I have them listed correctly.
Cheers all.
