No LP hood is listed for a SM 60001 and up witch would be a SMTA tractor in a regular SM parts book. Also all LP tank and parts listed in a regular parts book stop at serial number 52627.
Shows a different hood for a SM LP and a gas. If I remember correct the factory SM LP tank is different in front of the tank.
SMTA hoods listed are a gas, kerosene and distillate.
Diesel hoods are the same on a SMD and a SMTAD.
Also the lower radiator cast pipe is longer on a SMTA than a SM and no LP pipe with the coolant opening is shown for a SMTA. Pipe shown ends at 52627 serial.
Can't say one way or the other 100% if IH made a SMTA LP tractor at Farmall works but I don't go with the idea you can say they did going by the SM parts book.
If they did build any there my opinion is not on the regular production line and for special customers or pre production.
SMTA hoods are longer on the front end because of the upper bolsters. That's also why the longer coolant casting on a SMTA. Vertical steering shaft and radiator sets about a 1.5 inch more forward compared to a SM. SMD front bolster is the same measurements as a SMTA gas and diesel weather it has the corner holes or not and that's why a SMD and SMTAD hood is the same.
If you notice Tony's tractor, on top of the hydraulic reservoir there's another set of holes to mount the rear tank support 5 inches apart. When that kind of tank or even a gasoline tank was put on a SM the rear mount ends up going in the rear holes of the hydraulic unit on a stage 2 SM. M will also end up with the tank rear 5 inches closer to the steering post.

Today's Featured Article - A Belt Pulley? Really Doing Something? - by Chris Pratt. Belt Pulleys! Most of us conjure up a picture of a massive thresher with a wide belt lazily arching to a tractor 35 feet away throwing a cloud of dust, straw and grain, and while nostalgic, not too practical a method of using our tractors. While this may have been the bread and butter of the belt work in the past (since this is what made the money on many farms), the smaller tasks may have been and still can be its real claim to fame. The thresher would bring in the harvest (and income) once a y
