I'll let you know if I uncover anything interesting.

Any idea on the engine with the "ORONE" marking. Googled it and didn't get any returns.
There was a "Drone" brand of engine where the stylized D could be mistaken for an O but they were primarily diesels. They had a distinctive cone shaped cylinder head. As far as the green plane being sealed up that is the way is was usually done. No radio gear to access, small enough to toss in a car in one piece and the control line gear really didn't need much maintenance.
