I'm seeking a small engine that can drive a generator.
By small, I mean in the 12"^3 range.

It must be 4 cycle as it will need to run on propane.
It will drive a 13.8V generator, or 120VAC, say 800 watts.

If H-F Item#63025 was 4 cycle, (and it was un-junk....) that
would be ideal.

This to fit aboard a sailboat for stationary power/starter
battery recharging.

Of course, if instead you have a Diesel in that size [Ha!],
speak up.

Yanmar do the L40 which is a 4hp (12cuin) diesel and I have one on a
mixer, works well. I think the Chinese do a knock off of them.
