One thing about the oiler gear... it is most needed when the tractor is not moving. As long as the tractor is moving, other gears are in mesh and throwing oil into the oil trough. During periods when the tractor is idling in neutral, with the oiler gear missing is when there is no oil being thrown in the trough for the bearings. We had a "B" 20 or 30 years ago that we mowed and raked hay with. For some reason, the gear broke, and got chewed up and fell to the bottom of the tranny in pieces just when we needed the tractor the most. We picked the chunks out of the bottom, and changed the oil. And since nothing is as permant as a temporary fix, we ran it 4 or 5 years that way before replacing the gear, with no apparent ill effects.
