I think Jim Nicholson pretty well hit the mark. Looks to me like the "cylinder" on the drawbar is a hydraulic pump that has probably gone bad. After which, a shorter chain was used to run the broom. The unit on top of the transmission housing is probably a hand pump. You pump up by pumping sideways on the white lever. I'll bet the round knob ahead of the lever is turned to lower the broom (like the release on a floor jack). The original control vlave was probably removed then this thing was installed.

The rear, near the PTO is the standard IH configuration for an A with PTO but no belt pulley.

This particular tractor appears to have had a pneumatic lift on it at one time. Since it is an industrial, it probably started life as a highway mower. When the owner upgraded their mowing equipment, this tractor got moved to broom duty. I think that probably happened to a lot of A mower tractors.
