If still equiped with the early bosch pump, they were different things on the real early pump. Some had a drain near the point rear housing mounts to the main housing.
Problem with the serial numbers is, serial # 26145 was the first official MD made. But the serial numbers of all M tractors is included in the total. 26146 or 26147 or lots of others could be a gas tractor before another MD was included. 26145 and your # 26978 were built in the first month of MD production, Jan 1941. So whatever was built from 26146 to 27141 was the total of M tractors of all fuel types. First M tractor built starting 2-1-41 was 27142. Since MD tractor production was a small percent of the overall M production, probably not to many were made before the tractor you have.
Long axles were offered as a attachment, don't know what the notches are for. Unless there the bolt on axle extenders.
