There should be a number somewhere on it , unless your the original owner you don"t know if its the same gen-set that came in the boat , so getting a number from someone else could lead you to the wrong info.

Don't know about '80s vintage but the older onan engines had a serial number stamped on the block on a protrusion just in front of the lifting eye. Can you post a pic of your unit? It would help.
