Maybe your source mentions the name of the engine as brand, it looks that is a Minarelli, all the webs that shows the Pinguino asembled gives the information that I've stated in my former mail, no differences on the brand or year.

Cimatti was a builder of bicycles and motorcycles for a long time but the model of scooter Pinguino did not have any success and left it the same year of presentation. If the date of your sources is later to 1963, it is possible that it is a store that try to sell the unsold stock of Cimatti. If the date is earlier it could be that Cimatti bought the model from a previous manufacturer ...

M.B.M Pinguino, made by Meccanica Bolognese Motocicli.

It is not MBM Milani from Cesena, they were not related.
