Sounds like someone rebuilt it. An external balance crank will work in a internal balance block ,but not the other way.

I have D9TE block in my Model A with an early internal balanced rotating assembly. it was a lot of work, grinding inside to clear the crank throws, but it can be done. putting a late external balance rotating assembly in an early block is a piece of cake.
