I have the photo in the book "THE 8-CYLINDER TOURING CARS" of Price & Arbey found. Photographed at the 1924 French GP at Lyon. Is that real a type 33 ?.

Yes, it probably is. The T33 had the flywheel / clutch separated from the engine (patented solution). As a result, the driver could be located more to the front of the car. This can be also seen on the picture, as well as the big cast piece visible beneath the chassis, which was intended to connect the engine to the flywheel, meanwhile providing footwells for the driver and passenger.
