The 353 and 346 are pretty much the same machine but with slight differences to port timing and piston diameter so difficult to tell what you have.

Your saw is NOT an XPG so that recoil cover is NOT original. The clutch cover is a Silverside off a "New Edition" 50cc 346XP or XPG so NOT original.

You either have a 346XP with a 353 cylinder and piston OR a 353 with a 346 recoil and clutch cover.

 

My hunch is that it is a 353 made to look like the more popular 346XP - possible the serial was removed to fool you or it is hot! I base that on the fact the recoil cover and clutch cover are non original and a 353 top end would be a difficult one to get hold off in comparison to a 346 one.

The 353 is OK, not as fast revving but probably more torque.

As long as it’s not dangerous, it will be ok for me. 

the clutch cover that came with the saw was orange. My dad replaced it with a silver one from lse.

 

last time I buy second hand could have got a brand new one for less after all the replacements! 
 

oh well you learn your lesson the hard way.

 

it will be a hot saw as no other reason to take the serial off.
