I have a similar mower, judging from your description. The chain goes to the left side "Touch Control" lever, and controls the height off the ground for the mower itself. I have mine on a Super C, I use it a lot and really like it. Mine does not have any guards on it and I think it never did - it dates from a time when mfg's were not required to design for idiots. Needless to say be sure this thing is disengaged before getting on or off the tractor.

Check the oil in the bearing housing for the upper and lower pullies, and it has about 12 grease zerks that I would suggest giving a shot of grease before using it. The wooden shaft that goes between the lower crank pully and the mower blade itself is (or at least was till recently) available at IH dealers.

Look around and try to find the front end of the short driveshaft that goes to the PTO. On mine it was missing but it was not hard to get one fabbed up.
