Take a look at this liquid cooled (hopper type) Chinese diesel engine on Ebay

This diesel also has electric start at a current bid amount of about $400.

My small engine of choice is a Briggs so I'm not bad mouthing them. But, we have one of the new Briggs engines at work where the exhaust valve broke off and turned around and punched a hole through the top of the piston. If anyone is interested I can take a picture of it.
