The bracket on the rear of the cylinder head is likely for a foot throttle accessory.

Can't id the dizzy.

Those pans are Model A dust pans for between the motor and frame.

Thats an after market distributor, with more than likely a BOSCH #9 head on it (VW's used them). There may or may not be a centrifugal advance inside. At any rate, theres a link of "bell crank" missing, which you may or may not need depending on the above. Look DEEP inside mine... see the spring (yellow?). ws
