Ha-43-42 engine for J7W1 seems to have been modified largely from Ha-43 aka Mitsubishi A20.
Its appearance would have been almost like this.

A fascinating look inside the fuselage!

As a volunteer at Smithsonian, I helped prepare this engine as it was being sent to Japan on loan for a museum display. I don't know which museum there. Reminded me of a 3350 with dual Daimler/Jumo type superchargers.

I forgot to add that I have seen the center fuselage with the wings over at Garber many years ago.

Thanks for your information, Tony.
That engine is now displayed at the Kakamigahara Air and Space Museum.
