Interesting Don, as always.
I have never seen that "X" with the large circle out of it.
The frame to the right with the dimple? That was used on all Ford passenger cars in '39. I can't speak to earlier models. In 1940, that dimple was no longer there and instead, that area was fairly flat, having a small diameter (about an inch) hole in the center.
