Default Wisconsin engine

First of all thank all of you who helped out with identifying my Wisconsin engine.I had a fellow who told me to try taking the ID plate off to see if I could read the back and it did help. The problem I have know is I have found that it is a BKND. What is the difference between the BKN and the BKND? The serial # is 3506806, I am guessing from the charts I have seen that this would be somewhere between 1961-1966?Thank you, Jeff

The "D" means it has a stellite exhaust valve for heavier service. The engine itself is the same.

I don't mean to sound uneducated but what is a stellite exhaust valve? I know what an exhaust valve is and what it does. but the stellite part I don't know.
