What's going on back here?

Doesn't look like a Type IV to me, and I don't think it's a Corvair.

That looks like a type 3 cooling fan and shroud, but I can't make out enough of the rest to verify.

1600 cc Type 3 Squareback motor with an alternator installed and the generator taken off.

the cooling fan is mounted to the end of the crankshaft

That is a VW Type 1 engine with Type 3 cooling tins. It is missing a piece of tin that normally goes up over the alternator

Thank you all.  I hadn't thought about the Type III, but that makes sense. The alternator threw me off.
