Tractor is 50 years old, no steering and no T/A.

He has no initial oil. Why not put in a pump? Gotta go in there anyhow.

If and when this by chance does not cure the problem, then we go looking for an oddball ghost that just might by pure coincidental accident cause two completely separate, but still front pump oil related, problems downstream from one another?

Dunno, I say put in the common-most wear item first. Sure can't hurt on a tractor that old. Odds are 90/10 in favor of a successful repair. Roll the dice and quit wasting time jacking around with all that testing.

For sake of argument, let's just say a 3-cent o-ring is causing all the grief. Put a darned pump in it anyway. It's old and it needs replacing just because they do wear out over time and the entry wound has already been made.
