Starter problem

This old forklift still works great, but it is difficult to start, even with a new, fully charged battery. I am trying to find a starter for it. It is an air cooled 4 cyl. and uses lp gas.
The starter on it now is a Delco Remy Model 1107163, Serial #8H26
A company said that the HY118616A starter is what they come up with, but the picture shows the solenoid to be 90% off from where it is on my starter.
Does anyone know which starter this lift takes? Thank you for your help.
