Ur right!  i think the jensens unplug at the base!

If it has a brass boiler, then yes...
Jensen 45 tinboiler versions has fixed cords, entering the firebox via a Heyco restraint.

I think Fulton is correct.  It was marked, I just couldn't remember what it was.

The one on the right is (I believe) is a Robert Fulton,  I'm  sure it's not a Jensen.

I believe its a Jensen 45 on the right,  the cord and chimney look very jensen.  I bet its rusted through from the looks.

I spotted these two engines for sale in the flea market section at the Little Log House Pioneer show in Hastings, MN this past weekend.

One on the left is an AIROSOL model 302 It was free (not stuck) in fairly nice condition and was priced at $30.00

I don't recall what the one on the right is, but it was in rough shape, the piston was stuck, the flywheel was loose etc.  It was priced at $35.00

I didn't get either one because they were brands I have no familiarity with.  Perhaps I should have bought them?
