What is this half-moon indentation on the side of the engine block of my Super A? It's located smack in the center of this picture. Looks kinda funny to me...

Allen,
I am not sure on this, but I have an idea. IH used that same engine block on a lot of different tractors. Our IH 4000 forklift has the exact same gasoline engine block, but it is in a different configuration from the A. My guess is that it is a cutout for a starter or some other auxiliary piece of equipment. Anyway, just a hunch.

Original
It looks original, but it looks odd with that bolt right there in the casing, and with the hole going right through to the bell housing...
I think those grapes are on the loader mount, not on the tractor...

Wow
Wow, no kidding! So I guess I'll manufacture a small plate to cover that gap and use that bolt to hold it in place, and go from there...
I'm hoping that doesn't limit me in any way?
