Ricko..... ....you write..... ."what is it and can it be fixed (JB weld or real weld??)"..... ..that "diamond plate" is for fuelpump applications. Yer N-tractor does NOT have a fuelpump, its carburetor is GRAVITY fed. Isn't that amazing??? The N-Engine was also sold and used for industrial purposes such as irrigation pumps, hay bailers, wheat threshers, corn pickers, electric light generators, railroad car refrigeration, some 1940 delivery vans and pickups, and even early WW2 Jeeps used the N-Engine. Isn't that interesting??? And how do you suppose they got fuel to the carburators? Engine block mounted fuel pumps??? Wow, watta concept. And did you know enny of those afore mentioned engines will fit yer N-Tractor??? And fer future reference, it takes SPECIAL techniques to WELD CAST-IRON engine block. But surprizingly enuff, JB-Weld works quite well with cast-iron repair. (just follow directions) Simple, eh?..... ..respectfully, Dell
