Default Need to ID New Toy

I got a new Generator for my birthday and the engine tag is missing and the Unit tag has corrosion on it. Could some one please tell me the Unit number. It appears to end in 5-T. I think the engine is a Briggs model Z. The generator head is Leeland, 120 Volt, 60 /cycle, 2.5 KVA. I will need a manual also.

Looks like you might have a PE-75 gen set. There is an old thread that touches on these. You can see it here: http://www.smokstak.com/forum/showthread.php?t=23550
As with most military equipment - It was made to reliably deliver power under the worst conditions, and last forever if taken care of properly.
