Honda HRS216SDA - good engine / bad everything else

A friend of mine gave me this mower over the weekend. He claims it has a gas leak and let it sit outside in florida for the next 3-4 years. I cleaned the carb, got it started and it runs good.

But the deck, wheels are shot (deck isn't just rusty, it's got cancer).

1) are the mounting points the same on the GCV160/190?
2) what about on the the GSV series(e.g. the ones found on the commercial decks)?
If i could find a used mower w/o the engine in decent shape, i think it would be worth it to reuse a perfectly good engine. any other thoughts?

thx in advance
