Is a Briggs and Stratton 850 I/C Engine a 6 horse power or an 8 horsepower. Just questioning because a mower shop told me it was an 8 hp engine

really need the engine's numbers to even try to look it up as it can vary a lot depending on the Ft-lbs specs. I have seen from 4.9 to 7 so far but I am just guessing at which 850 series it is.
