  Thanks for the comments and photos. I was able to find the number on the bottom, but very faint and hard to see.  I kind of like the red paint, looks pretty sharp, even though it is otherwise a nuisance and entirely incorrect. I have since removed the sight glass assembly, only to find that the holes into the boiler have been plugged with some sort of putty or solder, also painted over in red! So, any hopes of a restoration are not going to happen. Will let it go cheap if anyone is interested. Still has plenty of useful parts that could be used to help restore another. Or if the piping is replaced, might work OK as it is, without the sight glass?
