As mentioned, that is the tach cable drive and what's left of the tach cable (threaded/pinched off) on what looks to be a IH D236/282 engine. Part #3 which is #371245R91 supercedes to #401830R92

Useless factoid, but a distributor from a 6-cylinder IH gas engine (C221, C263, C291, C301) fits right in there. Learned that from someone else on a forum who used the distributor to drive his tachometer. Even ran fake plug wires as I recall just to complete the illusion.

Probably wouldn't hurt go give it a shot of grease, even if isn't used. Stan

But replace that open zerk first.
