Looks like an M130 swap.
.. interesting fuel gauge, ha.
Sorta seems like a custom project from a while ago that stopped progressing for one reason or another so it just sat.

I think this is the first Pagoda that has lost its concave roof or maybe it just looks like that.

Yikes, please somebody put it out of its misery!

It does look that way. How does a dashboard get so bent?

Would very much like to know where the carbureted manifold was sourced. It looks like it could be a stock original Mercedes part since it's cast aluminum I believe. Any guesses?

The registration document shows the engine number as being 130.923
From the tech manual:
130.923 is the engine for the 250 (W114 V28 and C114 V28, carburetor, 2.8 liter but badged "250")
