Jaguar engine?

You have to start somewhere and that's as good a place as any..
It's not Jaguar-engine though..

Clearly I was confused by the number of exhaust pipes - there must have been a 2 into 1 somewhere!

As I recall it, cylinders 2 and 3 of the XPAG engine had siamesed exhausts hence the three pipes. Not uncommon and carried forward to the BMC A and B series, albeit on the other side of those engines.
