1914 Model T touring

IMHO... it looks like a later 4 dip pan, and also SCRUTINIZE the lower water jacket corner on the inlet side. Looks kinda crusty and may be rusted through... ws

Thanks for the input fellas -

Hi Bill - When you talk to me, assume I don't know anything about anything.

So you're saying the oil pan may not be the one that came with this engine? What's the significance of a 4 dip pan? Did it address a lubricating problem of the earlier models?

Could you be more specific? If you're talking about the white substance on the lower right hand corner of the radiator, there's some cotton-like fiber under the bottom fin there. I don't know why. That doesn't seem like a plausible temporary leak fix, does it?
