I just thought I would post this picture to see how many would notice the one thing that is out of place? If no one gets it right away I will post a clue. Now if I could only find my favorite hammer. It is
probably in plain sight as well. Getting old is harder than I thought it would be. This sight makes it easier. You guys are great!

Working at slight angle to previous working. Will this lead to a triangle on the left hand side of the field as the tractor is orientated now?
 
Organic farmer down rd had me plant mix of barley and field peas. I had to make 2 trips with grain drill. 2nd time I went at slight angle so I could tell which tracks to follow.
 
My two cents are a guess, but it does appear to me that an oil filter is being used as a gas tank cap. LOL

It has an IH fuel cap.
 
IH recalled all of the gas caps going back to 1939 because of a fire hazard. The original caps could trap fumes and cause a fire if they were removed when the engine was hot.

This is a replacement. When I entered the serial numbers of my 3 H's and my M I received a carton of five new caps that look exactly like this.

I guess someone didn't want to split a carton.
 
As others have said IH fuel cap. Additionally something looks off with the front axle. Left side is spaced out further? Also the front axle looks tilted, could the right front tire be flat giving the axle that tilt?
 
You are right about the PWI, it sure was a nice day for a ride on the old Oliver! But I am glad to see how many spotted the Farmall gas cap! It should be on my A or Super C. I am sure that the front axle is
the same on both sides. The crop is up now and when I planted I just drove with the front wheel right in the tire mark of the drill. You have to look close to see any crooked rows. Also I picked up many of the
rocks. Thanks for the many responses!
 

If memory serves, some years ago Central Tractor, TSC, or some such outfit(s) sold generic safety ''tall gas caps'' for multiple tractor ''makes'', if that is true it may not be an IH cap at all.
