Can you identify a german aircraft by its main engine data plate??

[merkle]

Hi All,

I was wondering were i should start, and indeed if it is at all possible ??

I have a Jumo 211 data plate, I bought many moons ago, with provenance, which has turned out to be untrue !

Very annoyed about it, but now wonder if there is a way i can trace the aircraft through the engine number ??

it crashed on in the uk, and was dug up decades ago , and now I just dont know if there is a way of me tracking down just what this plate came from ??

Can anyone out there give me any leads to find out, where to look , etc

the plate reads Gerat-Nr (damaged) then -211 H-1
below this it says Werk-Nr MZM H-1/579

obviously it has the Junkers logo, and factory details on it too, Bauart:moterenbau addressed nr Dessau,

and at bottom of plate hersteller: jukers flugzueg etc, magedeburg.
