Does the bottom oil control ring show out the bottom of block in the
crankcase a smidge? Working on a 1950 John Deere A.

Sure looks like it does, but i never worked on a two cylinder !

It shouldn't. Looks like broken block.

This is normal on some engines. I really don't know on a John Deere A but I've seen this on large compresser station engines. When I asked this same question years ago at work it seemed nobody had ever noticed.

Does the oil ring on the left-hand piston show like the right-hand one in your picture?

Yes, I've seen it, just can't remember if it was on my H or A. Working on the A so I can look tomorrow.

If the ring gap was positioned in that area, might that be a potential issue do you think? As opposed to being on the opposite side of the piston.

That V shaped chunk of the cylinder is possibly a broken out chunk. Jim

That is normal. Just don't put the 3 piece ring in that groove.
