1949 B Oil Filter Body

Who knows what the oil filter bolt screws into on the top of the oil filter body?
Seems to be similar to a square fender not held inside a clip. As we all know when the clip gives out they are a bear to remove. When removing my filter, the exterior nut under the filter cup turned and turned without loosening. I had to bump it with an impact. Now I can't get it back together because whatever I'm trying to screw into is floating around.
Don't think I'm interested in removing oil lines from the top of the filter body and dropping it out...

There is a filter head on top of the oil filter canister. A long stud it threaded into it. Sounds like it unscrewed there. Look at the parts book page on partscatalog.deere.com.
 
The bolt screws directly into the Filter Head Cover? #8
Anyone ever had the filter head cover apart to know what's supposed to be holding the female 'nut' in place/ any chance of fixing this without major disassembly?

Actually, #19. The Filter Head has a nut somehow attached in the bottom?
 
The bolt just screws into the filter head. Usually when the bolt spins, it's because the filter head is broken from over tightening the filter cap.
 
I'm pretty sure that the filter head, #19, is itself threaded for the long bolt rather than there being a nut for it to screw into.
 
I don't know if you've been into the oil filter head area. Here's a picture of the oil filter head in my 1953 JD 50, but the crankshaft and rods have already been removed. As you can see, if the crank and rods were in place, the area would be pretty congested. I imagine that your JD B would look about the same inside the crankcase.

No clips. Either your shaft is stripped or the cast is stripped cracked.

Picks are from a -46 B, threads into center of left piece

You're giving up too quick. Take the crankcase cover off and look it over - one step at a time. You can fix it!
