The photo I have of the engine is from the side looking over the top of a hood side panel at the air cleaner. I can see the dip stick handle in the foreground and the curved oil fill pipe beyond with a cap that has the two ears sticking up on top for you to turn it with. From Ol' Georges comments I think this might be a Series II. I went ahead and agreed to purchase the tractor and now I have to wait about three weeks before I can go get it and know for sure.
Thanks again to all you guys for your inputs. I really enjoy this forum, read it regularly and continue to be amazed at the knowledge that exists here and is so freely given.
