Was it a diesel engine from a car?

Not from a car, but I´m quite sure this type of engine has been used in other moving vehicles, too.

I think they´re more known for their bigger engines.

No. The company still exists, but is not known for vehicles (They have built some, though).

I give you the point.

My source said it has been built with a MWM diesel engine for a Kalisalzbergwerk (and there was the place Garbsen in the text).
Unfortunately I didn´t have scanned the text, too
