From Craigslist. Owner claims this is a factory '57 341 dual quad hemi. You'll need the engine numbers to verify but if you are restoring a '57 Adventurer and don't have your original engine this might be worth pursuing:

I am going to go out on a limb and say it is not a S26A block. Yes Adventurer intake and carbs. 341 not 345 and the missing coil mount on the valve cover is another clue. And it is hard to read but I believe the spark plug covers say Firedome instead of Fireflite.
The carburetors are Carter Competition Series, not Stock. The Intake is the real one for a '56, '57 Adventurer...
If you look at some of the other pictures in the ad you will see the original carbs are included but not on the engine at this time
