Oliver oc 3 questions

Just wondering about an Oliver oc 3 crawler tractor with dozer blade and pto. The crawler has a mag. Supposedly the last time it ran was in September on starting fluid and before that was god knows when. At the moment the starter is of the tractor. The wiring is junk and the belt pulley is gone. How hard would it be to pull start the tractor and run it for a minute (probably should just stick a bar into the flywheel and turn it over by hand first?)? Have no clue about a wiring diagram. If the starter was to come back, would the tractor run on 12 volts? For fuel tank, I have a one gallon snowblower tank.
 
With a mag,you don't need a battery to start it. A mag makes it's own electricity. A 12 volt to turn the starter won't hurt a thing. I'd unhook the wires to the generator and regulator before I tried it is all.
 
Some had a water pump, some were thermo-
siphon cooling. Probably not the best to
run either for too long without the fan
or water pump turning.
