Model b motor

The sound is very likely caused by loose flywheel bolts, not uncommon on 4 cylinder engines. The crank touching the dipper tray would not make a knocking sound may be the wrong tray? A's came with 2 or 3 different trays over the years, the B tray should have 4 large, maybe ", holes in the top, flat surface, not sure all B's had those?

How would one go about checking that?. I don't recall, an inspection cover on the bottom of the bell housing. Would hate to have to pull the engine just to check for the possibility of loose bolts.

Just pull the starter and wiggle the flywheel!
