It is likely not oil. Probably combustion residue from a bad head gasket. Think about it: It's a flat head engine so there is no oil in that engine above the lifters and surely none in the head like an OHV engine has. Something else to think about: If you go the typical overhaul/restore on that tractor, buy a tire or two, plus paint it like so many get you'll soon have $3-4+ Grand MORE into a tractor that has no features like more gears, live hydraulics, live PTO, power steering, etc, etc. And it will be worth a couple when you're done. Better to take that money and put it into a Ford 600/800/2000/3000/4000 which likely WILL have those features and more horsepower to boot. You will be Way ahead in the long run.
