Thanks for the response Karl. There is hope for this thread yet. It sure beats "What does my tractor weigh?" and "How much is it worth?".
I can't remember how vital that opening is for assembling the IPTO parts. The design allowed them to use a seasonal disconnect through the wide part of that plate. It was phased out in a couple of years. The seasonal disconnect was probably an afterthought when they realized it could be done because they had the opening.

The SAE bell housings had to come about because there were beaucoup engine builders selling there products to even more truck mfgs in the early years. Many were "assembled" trucks coming from factories that didn't build engines. Some were divorced engines similar to Oliver tractors but what works in a rigid tractor frame is not so good in a flexible frame truck.
