Admit it, you just read the Boeing ads
That article was also published in SAE Journal without the ads in the second part
Some Notes on Design Features of The Mitsubishi Kinsei Engine - W. G. Ovens SAE Transactions, Vol. 50 (1942), pp. 253-266 - ID:44439189
That is on AEHS https://www.enginehistory.org/Piston/Japanese/KINSEI.pdf with text but worse image quality.
And this report on the metallurgy of the related Kasei (taken from JAPANESE AIRCRAFT MATERIALS)
