it depends on how old the engine is a steam engine is old so it would more than likely be shaft
A steam engine is an external combustion engine. As the steam engine combusts outside of the engine itself.
By looking at the build of it. If it's a gas turbine, jet engine, ramjet, or rocket motor, then it's not internal combustion. If it uses pistons in enclosed cylinders, then the combustion occurs internally, within the engine housing.
