Dave, the gray is oil and water.

As for your filter, I use the Fleetguards from IH, #LF-618, but you can cross that to any brand you're confident with. It's a canister, about 4" tall, 3" wide. Snozzles are about 1" on the lower end and 1/2" on the top. Just make sure that you get the flat ring rubber gasket to go with it, and to make sure there isn't one left in the slot on the tractor's filter housing before you replace it. (They're notoriously devious and will hide from you, but a quick swipe through the channel with something pointy will tell you whether it's there or not.) Trying to stack two will almost guarantee you a leak, and you don't want to overtorque the hollow retaining bolt that holds it all in place trying to stop the leak.

Don't fret about her challenging you about starting this morning. Mine sasses me about half the time, but always starts. I'm thinking it's a lot like my SuperC, who says "What choke?" Usually start better with none.

And I'd sure like to know what you did to get the full range on your throttle lever back.

Dropping the pan can't hurt. The gaskets are easy enough to come by (cork/rubber) but may or may not be an Case/IH item.
