Default Unknown diesel engine

Hello, anybody will identify this one ?
It has been bought on e--y GB and has a very curious design with a rear induction + a RC carburator and a single OHC. The compression screw is the "windup key" visible on the head, near the lonesome rocker ...
It appears to be a .25 CI or 4 CC engine, height and lenght are about 10 CM or 4 inches, the diameter of the water jacket is about 4 CM or 3/4 inch.
The craftmanship is correct but not excellent (in fact much better than i could do !), the compression is fair and unfortunately, I have been unable to start it with standard diesel fuel...
Many thanks for your Help, Chris
