On distillate tractors you could much more accrurately monitor the oil level with the pet cocks than with a dip stick. The distillate or kerosene would dilute the oil and raise the oil level. If the oil was over the top pet cock you let it run down untill it was at the proper level. With a dipstick you would have no way to do this. If no oil ran out of the top pet cock and oil did run out the lower petcock you had the proper amount in the engine. If none ran out the bottom petcock you added oil. Very good and efficient method.
The H engine with a dip stick is either a gasoline power unit engine or a gasoline replacement engine.
