John,

I've never heard of a sleeve valve marine engine, ie, a prime mover or a 
generator even.  The Transport Museum in Glasgow has a  number of these cut 
away engines - the one on Youtube may well have been videoed there.

I like the comments vis a vis lubrication problems - "modern technology will 
probably solve it, etc".  Faint hope !

Hugh.
