What the number itself says
Reading NEGLC.168MC1 left to right: N is the model-year letter for 2022, EGL is the three-character code the EPA assigned to Egl Motor as certificate holder, C marks a highway (street-legal) certification, .168 is the displacement in litres, so 168cc and MC1 is Egl Motor'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 Egl Motor submitted for this family (model LF150T) carried engine code 161QMK. In the Chinese engine-model convention that reads as one cylinder with a nominal 61 mm bore, QMK series. Against the certified 168cc that implies a stroke of roughly 57 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 throttle-body fuel injection, with an oxygen sensor for closed-loop fuelling, run by an engine control module (ECM). No catalytic converter is listed.
Rated power on the record is 6.8 kW (about 9 hp) at 8,000 rpm, driving through a CVT (belt and variator).

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.
