No it isn't a newer V8, probably an older fifties vintage engine. Look at the oil fill tube, it is at an angle and the thermostat housing doesn't have the bypass like the modern V8s do. Also, it is very hard or next to impossible to get a three carburetor manifold for a newer V8.
Edit: and the generator too, although any newer engine could have been set up with one. I have even seen people dress up the exterior of an alternator to appear like a generator.
