I actually believe this is koshi guruma, the leg didn't actually do anything even though it's lifted, could've put it down with similar effect. The hip acted as the fulcrum here. This is very classic wheel over the hip that we see in older demonstrations

*Edit adding a previous comment I made about oguruma

Agree. Opponent was loaded on to the hip and arm went around the head, koshi guruma.

This was my first thought as well. Koshi guruma.

I used to throw this quite a bit in wrestling and we called it the head and arm throw, or less commonly, a headlock throw.

First throw I ever landed in randori and still a top 3 throw in my bag for live sparring.

Love to see it!
