What the number itself says
Reading 8BNZC.050SA1 left to right: 8 is the model-year letter for 2008, BNZ is the three-character code the EPA assigned to Benzhou (Usa) Vehicle Industry Group as certificate holder, C marks a highway (street-legal) certification, .050 is the displacement in litres, so 50cc and SA1 is Benzhou (Usa) Vehicle Industry Group's own sequence for that year. Nothing in the number names the factory — that comes from the certificate itself.
The engine, as described on the certificate
The test vehicle Benzhou (Usa) Vehicle Industry Group submitted for this family (model YY50QT) carried engine code 139QMB. In the Chinese engine-model convention that reads as one cylinder with a nominal 39 mm bore, QMB series. Against the certified 49cc that implies a stroke of roughly 41 mm — a sanity check for a piston or cylinder listing, not a published figure.
The certificate describes a four-stroke, single-cylinder engine with 2 valves per cylinder fed by carburettor, run by an ignition control module (CDI-type ignition). There is a catalytic converter in the exhaust, recorded as "oxidizing catalyst only". The head carries a pulse secondary-air (PAIR) valve.
Rated power on the record is 2.2 kW (about 3 hp) at 7,500 rpm, driving through an automatic.

Filing history and where it was sold
Benzhou (Usa) Vehicle Industry Group filed one certificate under this family, for model year 2008, sold as 49-state (not certified for sale in California).
The vehicle itself is recorded as built by Benzhou Vehicle Industry Group Co., Ltd. in China, while the engine came from Chongqing Loncin. Chassis parts and engine parts therefore have different origins.
Certified emission levels: CO 3.1, HC 0.25, NOx 0.62 g/km.

A shared code from the same factory is a strong search lead. From a different factory it is as often a naming coincidence. Either way it narrows the search; it does not settle it — measure before you buy.
