Looks alright to me!!

Is it Oval tubing on the Top and Down Tubes or teardrop.

Piccys of the front and rear dropouts, Brake bridge, Forks (if original),  any gussets (like between the rear stays) and even weld quality can help with ID.

Nice find though!!   :daumenhoch:

Is it missing a seat clamp or is it incorporated in the seat tube!!  :D

http://bmxmuseum.com/bikes/raleigh/4612 ... has flat brake bridge
i dunno, backstays seem thinner here?
 .. the welds however seem charactersitic and look pretty similar

after studying this more closely on a pc and not off my phone I would concur that theat it is a mkll burner, there should be R cut outs in the rear dropouts, the stem isnt original, but the pedals are deffo burner ones, chainwheel looks very wrong, depending on what model it should have either a suntour or SR stem, if its stamped on the bottom of the BB 'tange', he's got a money maker there as that would make it an aero pro, most sought after indeed

I would say in conclusion that its a mkll burner with CW style bars [not original] that has be upgraded in the early 90's with a midschool stem and chainwheel, the brake lever looks like the right era DC ones as do the wheels and possibly a matching dc caliper

hope this helps

thats a mk2 chrome burner frame, misssing its seatclamp...possibly a chrome burner,super burner or a supertuff with the superchrome removed, non og forks burner pedals , non og stem
