Check left brake cover area - I"ve seen 1 and heard of others stamped on top of rear end in flat where brake cover mounts rather than aft face of rear end - and sometimes partially or completely covered by brake cover.

Although I have never read this elsewhere, I found the serial number of my WD stamped into the hydraulic pump casting on the top front edge where it bolts up to the torque tube. It was buried under paint, but showed up when I removed the hydraulic pump to do some repair work. It had to come from the factory this way as the tractor has been in the family since new.

Might be worth a look.

If the engine is a 1957 the engine serial number should be between 94105 and 101415. The engine serial number is located on the left side of the block on a raised pad behind the air hose from the air cleaner to the carburator and had a 45- prefix. Get that engine serial number and we can at least date the engine.

This will not help with the year but it will tell you if it has the correct engine etc. The shifter should have a little curve to it and on the right side of the engine there shouldn't be a bolt on plate. If it has a plate that bolts on then its a WD engine and if the shifter doesn't have that curve then its a WD tranny also
