I would think Enzo was more influenced by Alfa Romeo V12's, where he worked for many years, or Alfa Romeo rather than Ford.
Actuallly Enzo credited the Packard V12 staff cars of the US military for the interest in V12s.

I am not sure Alfa ever did a V12, they did do a "Bimotore" car with two six cylinders powering the chassis.
