model 15020 is as had been said a 1957 18hp. it is quite possible that the cover has been repainted in it's life. Post a pic

Pretty easy to explain. You probably have a "JohnnyRude" motor. Somebody may have swapped power heads sometime in it's very long history. Where did the serial number come from? On the side of the motor or the transom bracket?

Not to sound rude zach, but you have your numbers reversed. The J25RCD is actually your model number and the E5909503 is your serial #..

Just nfor future reference...
