Is this a new engine? Please advise.

Blue, first of all welcome to the forum.

What I'm seeing is normal for the Chinese 2 stroke engine. The alunminum castings are not up to the standars of the Japanese and are a little rough and crude. The clutch pads don't look worn or used. The pressure plate shows no signs of ever being run.
The screwdriver gouges on the primary gear are also not uncommon.
You have to consider that quality control isn't a huge concern with these relatively inexpensive little engines and most of us have come to expect some roughness from the little mom and pop assemblers who export the engines and kits.

The important parts that you need to be concerned with are internal, bearings, pistons and crankshaft. The cosmetic stuff has no effect on how the engine runs and performs for you.
We're here if you ned help or advice gettintg that little beast installed and running.

Have fun and ride safe.

We're glad to help, Blue. Shipping damage is common in these kits. Dented fuel tanks are very common as are bent and even broken cooling fins in the head and cylinder. Some are packed more carefully than others and some are never inspected by the seller so you get what came from the little mom and pop assemblers in China.

The fins can be straightened with a little careful work and a Dremel tool with the right wheels will smooth some of those rough places. Just taking off the bad areas will not compromise the cooling effect of the fins.

As was said above however, as long as the stuff inside works, that's what's important.

Good luck.

Tom
