Hendirk: For some reason I was not able to bring up your photo. While I have never checked part number on 140, I believe it to be same casting as the SA. The PTO shield I sold you came off that same 140.
I was in a hurry the day I installed the umbrella, wanted to be sure the 1-1/2" bolts I had on hand wouldn't bottom out. I checked the holes with a match stick. One thing I did notice was one of the corks and the threads in that hole had deteriorated somewhat. I had a tube of gasket black, decided to paste that around threads and plate, at least keep water out of threads.
It was only after the fact I got thinking, maybe these holes are open to transmission and rear end gears. My Super A and 130 still have the corks in those holes. If you had asked me 2 months ago if I would ever use those holes, I'd have said no and corks are best left there. I never dreamed anyone was going to hire me to cultivate 105 acres of cabbage either. 105 acres turned out being roughly 50 hours in southern ON sunshine, thus the umbrella was much apreciated. After seeing the condition of those corks and threads, I though maybe I should do SA and 130 as well.
By the way fuel consumption on the cultivating job was 2.8 L per hour or roughly 1.4 L per acre. I asked Tony if that 100 hp tractor with cab and 6 row cultivator, he wanted me to use, would have been as efficient. He said, on fuel probably not, on the contrary old codger in the seat, probably yes.
