And...was that fellows name dmsfrr??? Haha. I took a sharp flat chisel and knocked the heads off the rivets that held the oval shaped tag with red letters before taking mine to the trans rebuilder. Then I drilled the rivets out and tapped them for small machine screw. Didn't install the tag until I got the trans back from the rebuilder.

That passenger side is identical to both my '55 Ford-O-Matics and is the same for every small case cast iron Ford-O-Matic from at least '55 thru '59. The earlier ones had a filler cap where that rounded portion is near the rear and the transmission pan did not have a dipstick/filler tube. That's really the only big difference between all the small case Ford-O's from '51 thru '59 as far as the trans case goes.
