I have read many posts here and on other Forums cautioning folks about bolting their flathead engines to an engine stand using the integral cast bell housing. An attachment that will allow bolting the engine at the exhaust ports is claimed to be better.
A stand that bolts to the front and rear of engine could prevent removal of some components during a rebuild.
