I don't know how you determined that it is from an AN6, but unless is 
is a 1098cc instead of a 948. there wouldn't be any difference. The 
only thing that would make a difference value-wise is if you had the 
original engine WITH the original serial number plate. Even then, it 
probably would matter to most unless the car was either a completely 
original unrestored car that was is very good condition or if someone 
wanted to do a concourse restoration.
