John Deere Planter Marker Assembly

I would like a parts breakdown of the marker assembly on my planter. Although the planter has model 71 units, I don't think there is any association with the toolbar model.
Are the marker assemblies associated with a toolbar model? Or, do the marker assemblies have their own model number.
The only mechanical marker assembly I have found is type with a rope pull marker release selector.
Does anyone recognize this marker assembly and any model designation for me to lookup on jdparts?
Help will be appreciated, thanks.

How about searching for 'row markers'? or planter markers?I used to have markers like that.Threw away the chain systen amd made a hydralic arm with a cable and pulleys that raises and lowers...Pics are of the setup pn a tool bar planter,JD 70 units. Works fantastic!One markewr is down,the other side is up at a 45degree or so.Raise the one and the other side goes down. The only 'drawback' is that you have to get off the tractor seat to secure the markres up when the field is finished.And that is not really a problem.

Have a 4 row planter with that marker system. It does work when you get everything adjusted right. Not the best system but usable. Haven't used the markers for several years as I only use the planter to seed a few rows of sweet corn each year.
 
On my unit, the chain guide hoops are bend in several directions and the mounting bracket for the selector assembly has been adjusted with a cutting torch. I am looking for a picture of what it's supposed to look like for a pattern. Would you have any idea of a model number for the marker system? I haven't been able to find a parts breakdown on the JD parts site.

Thanks,
