Compressor pump revisited, no one has made an ID yet

I've looked through thousands more pictures of compressors, no luck yet. The valve covers are almost Devilbiss but they the rest is nowhere close, the double intake valves on the LP side is used on some Eaton compressors but everything else different.

The jug is similar to Kellogg American and a few other pics.

The flywheel / fan is similar to Kellogg American, the 5 blade and hub pinch area is somewhat unique.

The air filter only seems to show up on Kellogg Americans too.

The bottom end shares many features with Kellogg pumps but is more square shouldered where the jug bolts to it.

The new pics of the valves.

I used to work on compressors but it's been a long time.
And I'm reaching the age where "CRS" sets in.
Anyway I think You might have a Kellog pump.
I'll give You some links to comp. sites that might help.
This first one has repair kits for many brands,so maybe You can email some picts and get help from them.

Good Luck with it. It has the look of a good pump. Well worth the time to rebuild it.

You are the owner of a very old Kellogg. I"ve never seen one with a 5 valve head, or screw-in retainers, so it"s probably something from mid, last century. You might want to send the company in the link a message with photos, maybe they can help you out.

BTW, the dead giveaway for a Kellogg pump is a gap in the upper, rear crankcase that lets you install the crank and rods as a complete unit through the back end of the case. You then set bearing preload with gaskets and shims on the back cover. Kelloggs are good pumps, but they tend to strip threads very easily, probably due to the grade of cast iron they were made from, so take it easy when buttoning it up.

If I am wrong on the make, it might be an old Dresser, but the crankcase and cooling fin shape look awfully Kellogg-like to me.
