Default transmission floor cover gasket/seal

Is there a floor seal between the transmission cover and the floor on a 1933 model B metal floor?

Yes, seal and tower boot. Early Ford Store, San Dimas, California has them

I had to remove the forward floor section to get at the clutch linkage, is the a gasket/seal between that and the metal floor to prevent rattleing?

No gasket or seal originally on '33-'34s, nor a boot over the shift lever housing.

I guess mine came with the aftermarket stuff, did not know it was not OEM. David, when did Ford start using the seal, or did they ever?

The transmission cover plate to floor seal first appeared in the 1937 model year.

Thanks....I guess the heavy rubber floor mat helped control noise
