A few years ago, gathering information like this in a few days and from all corners of the world, would have been unthought of. Colin, you are not on your own, there will always be someone with the answer out there.

I have been looking at some of your photos and notice that the radiator has been moved to the pulley end of the engine. It should in fact, be over the gearbox, laying not quite flat, following slope of front decking. It hinged up to access a fan assembly, the latter does not appear to be there. I am searching for some of my photos that might help you here. The oil guage attached to the radiator looks like the original, now the black box fitted just below, looks like it might be the cut out for the dynamo as the wiring dissappears in that direction. Different to the one that I worked on, probably the sort of thing that failed in service, and was substituted with a suitable replacement.
