Yup, 6 cylinders and two crankshafts each with 6 pistons facing each other and hopefully not meeting in the middle !

Interesting
 
That engine is either
a. Junkers Jumo 204
b Napier Culverin.

Napier licence built the Jumo 204. It was 720 hp 2 stroke diesel, vertically opposes 6 cylinder engin. It had two six throw crankshafts connected by a train of gears in the front of the engine.

So.....I'm going with the Fairy 111F !
