David,
I'd be surprised if the engine came from a Mini (FWD). Looking at a
chart found at
www.mgcars.org.uk/mgccz/technic/codeseng.pdf
it appears that it may have come from a Minor 1000 series 5, which
would be quite plausible. Others on the list will probably be able to
elaborate.
Look after the cars, there's quite an interest developing in them
back here in the UK.
