11 horsepower
Just add enough oil to reach the full mark on the dipstick.
A 179 cc engine is around 5.5-6 horsepower. There's no hard and fast rules on cc to hp conversion there are too many variables.
42 CC = 1 hp357 cc engine would be 8.5 hpPower isn't a function of displacement, and there isn't an equation that converts cubic centimeters to hp. This is a better question for the manufacturer (MTD I believe). I guarantee that engine has more than 8.5 hp.
CC stands for cubic centimeters and in is referring to the displacement of your engine (The size of the chamber for burning fuel.) Higher cc will always be more horsepower unless you get into aftermarket modifications on the engine or fuel.
179 cc = 10.923 cubic inches.

150 cc a hp
The hp is not determined from the cc. However there is a relationship between hp and engine volume (CC). For most engines the larger the volume, the greater the hp (this doesn't always hold true however).
This will depend on the engine type, manufacturer, weather and altitude. A Honda GCV160 for example produces 4.4hp at 3600rpm.
There probably is but I would need the model number beginning with 143 to look it up. It may be covered by other things, but it should be on top of the engine.
Displacement and HP have no direct correlation because of numerous engine design features, but the only engine I know of that is 179cc is the Chinese-built PowerMore engine.
