That fabulous cotter key hanging down out of the bottom of the flywheel housing is my very favorite Model A bit. It would be very interesting to go back in time to hear the engineer explain how a loosely-applied cotter pin would wobble enough to keep the weep hole open so that every Model A could do its thing -- leak erl all over the garage floor. Think he got a bonus?
