"78 Mercury Bobcat Engine"

I just posted this on TheSamba.com
I'm a noob that two days ago inherited a 73 VW camper with a water cooled engine. I was told it has a German made Ford engine so I assumed, from reading around on the internet, that meant a Ford Cologne V6 engine. Today I was sorting through papers in the glove box and found a small piece of paper with the oil filter part number and the last line reads:
"78 Mercury Bobcat Engine"
I Googled this and found that there is some overlap with the Ford Cologne V6 engine that I don't understand.
Can somebody explain?
Should I take a picture of the engine?
