It is the link image to an article I saw today, and the article doesn't even have the picture, so there is no caption or any information that I saw. Reverse GIS came up empty for me, so I'm assuming it is a stock image. The engine is obviously huge, and appears to have 7 main bearings, making it an I6 or possibly V12. My thought is that it is a big diesel, either for a semi truck or heavy equipment. Unfortunately I don't have anything beyond the picture, so I can't verify if anyone actually has the correct answer.

Big stroke, narrow, 7 main caps, and a heavy crank. Diesel I6, probably for industrial since it looks a good deal bigger than a cummins.

Looks kind of like a Detroit Diesel to me.

Looks like he's got a Volvo logo on his shirt, and I saw those crazy robot engine stands the last time I took a tour of the Volvo engine and trans plant in Western Maryland.
It looks like it's set up for two oil filters near the center of the block, so I'm going with a Mack engine, MP7 or MP8.

Also those canted connecting rod ends are definitely used in Volvo and Mack engines, but maybe other manufactures do that too.
