Fork looks like it has had a very crude, probably homemade brake mount, welded or brazed onto the fork crown; particularly the top (square) section which has the brake mounting bolt through it.
What it reminds me of is a frame that once had a fork crown mounted handlebar clamp, that has snapped and been replaced with the crude brake mount; to me, this square piece looks like a later addition to the rest of the assembly whereas the brazing attaching the lower piece to the crown looks a little neater.
A friend who raced track and time trials in the '80's has told me that there was a real vogue for homemade 'lo-pro' bikes at that time.
I would like to see more of this area in some close-up photos.
It may not be an Automoto, that chainset could have been added when the other parts were added.
Most Automoto frames also had quite ornate lugwork, particularly on the headtube lugs, that often incorporated the 'trèfle' (clover) design in the shape of the lugs; but not always.
Almost definitely a track frame, just look at that relatively small clearance betwixt front tyre and downtube.
Steep headtube geometry too.
