Craftsman snowblower...need help

I had just purchased a craftsman snowblower yesterday for parts hoping that i could just swap the front end off of it from my old ariens 8 hp 24" cut which the motor just died while clearing my driveway.The guy i bought the craftsman off of had just hooked his dogs chain and ripped the gear box off.I had found the tag on it for the serial number but the numbers are warn off. It is probably about 5 years old, 10 hp 28" cut. here is a link to a snowblower i found that looks pretty much exactly the same. www.sears.ca/product/craftsman-md-291cc-27-dual-stage-snow-blower/671-000202721-52065?campaign=rr_item_CategoryTopSellers_0_1 I would appreciate any help

The bolt pattern to transfer the engine would be nothing to accomodate but the shaft from the engines are 2 different sizes so the shaft on the tecumseh is probably about 1 1/2" longer than the B&S as the B&S engine is an 8 HP and the Tecumseh is 10HP. Is there a way i can find parts that will fit the Craftsman blower without the model number of the machine?

It's red, but it isn't a toro, looks more like a Husqvarna to me.
