your starter is mentioned in TB 55-1900-200-34, which appears to be "Configuration standards for rebuild of power unit, multiple engine (ddad) applicable to landing craft mechanized mark viii mod-0 vessels hull nos. 8000 thru 8427 nsn 1905-00-267-1097 and mark viii mod-1 vessels hull nos. 8500 thru 8560 and 8580 thru 8618 nsn" So it's for some landing craft, but that still doesn't tell you what engine it fits. A starter with cooling lines must be pretty impressive!
