I personally wouldn't buy it. That engine is a FORCE design with no cylinder head to it(the block and head are one piece). They do have a cylinder cover that goes on to cover the cooling passages, but these are known to corrode away and spray water all over the inside of the cowling and ruin the ignition system. They are a fairly cheap engine, but you get what you pay for here I believe. If you do look at it, look VERY closely around the spark plugs where the cover bolts down. If you see corrosion or pitting by the plugs run.
