The Colombo engine was designed by De Vecchi's Officine Meccaniche. (OM).
-During a visit to the Polytechnic Museum of Turin we could see that the Colombo engine there has a plate that does not contradict that the production was carried out in the Alfa Romeo.
-Neihter is there a record that says it is a Colombo built by Alfa Romeo.
-Unless it is true that De Vecchi & Co. also built them.
