ok, I am not sure whether I am confused, worried, or just plain befuddled. Was looking closely at the F-30 block today to try to find a casting date. There wasn't any, just the part number 487DE (or maybe 437DE, was a poor cast) and a large "M" just below it. Anyway, I found what appears to be a torch cut rod at the front, top of the block. just like the ones on an F-20/Regular, that is the pivot rod for the belt tensioner.
Looks like this had one at one point, and someone cut it off.......since I am not that familiar with the F-30, makes me wonder. Additionally, the flat boss on the carb side has no tamping or markings on it. totally blank.
Anyone have ideas or thoughts? I am beginning to wonder if this block is a replacement one.
