The engine should have model type and code numbers stamped in the shroud. The first 2 digits of the code will be the year of manufacture. Looks older to me. I can't place it - an old General Power / Sycamore maybe?

I will check those leads out And I will recheck the numbers on the engine for the year thanks for your tips .

Here is an updated on the replies the first 2 digits on the engine code are 83 I have also checked into the general power it's a dead end as well as the sycamore. The information i got the other day on another web site was the closest and I'm leaning towards the Murray mower co. cause the parts i found are exact matches but as of now i still haven't found a brand name or model number I will keep looking One way or the other i will rebuild this mower

If you can find an old Murray dealer that still has his microfiche, I seem to remember that they were updated yearly- hence it could be found by year. Murray may be a good guess, search out Noma as well. Below is a link that is a good source of Murray parts look up. Keep us in the loop!
