The Cooper S motor is the only 1275 with side covers over the tappet chest. 
If it has side covers and it is a 1275 it must be a Cooper S. |

I have found that with most Cooper S with the engine number ground off that if you look very carefully you can usually make out 12YD/Ta/H*****

The owner can only decify "cfmsh". Never heard of that combo. No tappets covers so not a cooper anyway. |
