Default what airplane engine this could be?

Hello,

We found this engine under the Central South Italian adriatic sea
coast. We would
like to know to what airplane it may belong. People from the area say
B-17 flying fortress
but I dont think so because from the image I see it is a 7 cylinder
engine and the
B-17 used the 9 cylinder, I think it belongs to a smaller airplane.
What engine you think it is? To what world war II plane it may belong?
I could dive again in that site, what kind of further info you may
need to try
to identify the engine and possible airplane type?

Look at the pics he http://s288.photobucket.com/albums/l...view=slideshow
