Museum in Norway - Tractor ID?

My son and a friend ran across this tractor at a farm museum in Oslo, Norway. My son recognized it as a Ferguson, similar to my TO-20, (even without the nameplates - good kid!) but the upturned exhaust and the sheet metal on the right side of the engine didn't look right to me, even for a TE-20. (He didn't get a photo of the serial number plate...kids, sheesh, what are you going to do! :wink: )
I checked the Ferguson ID guide at the FENA website, but didn't see anything similar.

I can't see it well enough to tell if it is really a TO20, but wouldn't that be
pretty odd to be in Norway?
 
Looks to me pretty much like the British built "Little Grey Fergy" T.E.A. we had so many of in New Zealand. The extra bit of tin may or may not be factory. Maybe there for weather protection. I had to make and install a similar one on the other side on mine to stop the rain water from the bonnet (hood) running on to the distributor and stopping the engine.
 
It is a TED-20 which is petrol/kerosene, or a TEA-20 that has had a conversion put on it to burn kerosene. The shield over the manifold is there to keeep the
heat in to vaporise the kerosene, but it doe's not look like the standard factory one for a TED-20.
 

The bottom of the inlet manifold is the giveaway , that and the heat shield over it . Both designed to get the fuel as hot as possible before induction . This is a factory Ferguson TED20 built to start on petrol and then continue to run on TVO , Tractor Vapourising Oil .
The ' boss ' at the base of the TEA20 [ petrol only version ] manifold just after the carburettor is much lighter in construction .
