Would you expect it's motor to have been replaced once or twice by now

Not necessarily.

If I had to guess, it's likely a 2HP/220v, and an even, or better,
chance of being original.


The plug from what I could tell looks like 110V three prong to me altho
it isn't conclusive as the picture angle is from the plug prong end but
sorta' a side view; possibly it is dual-voltage so could convert to 240V.

Ewww...just went to recheck my conclusion and "posting has been deleted
