Help identifying engine

Hello, I am looking to purchase this engine and the current owner says he thinks its a 13b-rew but doesnt know for sure, he received it in a trade 10 years ago and has been sitting in his garage. The intake looks to me like the one off a rx8?13b renesis but it has oil cooling lines and a turboII intercooler from the 13b-rew. I have attached a few images including an image of the serial number and a link to 3 short videos he provided. Any help and insight greatly appreciated.

its a junk renesis. leave it alone. the t2 intercooler is a random part from an fc and has nothing to do with the motor
