Typically, when replacing an electric motor with a gas motor, you use a 2x multiplier. Not sure how that applies to diesel though.
Either way, electric motors make full torque through their entire RPM range, where reciprocating engines fall off as they are loaded to the point they slow from full governed RPM.
So, the 2x factor would work out about right using the 11 HP and slightly overdriving the planner to get the right RPM.
Is the planner still under power? If so, check the loaded amps, see if it is maxing out the motor. If it is staying under the FLA, the 11 HP should be fine. If it is going over the FLA, or would be nice to have more power, go with the 19 HP.
Another factor to consider is how much the planner used. Is fuel economy a concern? If not, go with the larger motor.
Also be sure to check the belt drive requirements. Reciprocating engines require a heavier belt arrangement than electric motors.
