You have a late 31 with the indented firewall, but the engine appears to be earlier with the higher oil return pipe, and the oil pan looks like it might have the plate on the bottom to remove the oil pump. That one picture was hard to make out exactly what was on the bottom.

When you get time, I'd ditch the rubber fuel line and use the original style steel line. The rubber can break down and plug the carb.

Looks like you made a good buy.
