I've gotten back into my A/B parts book. For the A it shows a plug for the A. For the Bs and BNs it shows a 45-degree street elbow (male one end, female on the other) that runs down and to the left from the inlet casting, and then the vertical nipple and cap. The front castings are different between the two tractors and maybe that's the reason for it.
Still, there will be a hole somewhere in the bottom of your casting for the coolant to drain after it comes out from the plug. If the B/BN setup doesn't line up with or reach the hole you have, there MIGHT be room to start with a 45 or 90 street elbow and use a second 45 or 90 regular elbow with a shorter nipple between them (again, all common hardware items) to reach the hole before going vertical with a shorter nipple down to the cap.
My apologies for being so vague and rambling on. The nearest A I can get to is my neighbor's but it's a matter just now of fifty yards of three-foot-deep snow, with a six-foot snowpile about halfway through that to get over for a look. And it will be of limited use at the moment because the motor is out of it so i can't eyeball/gauge the alignment between the drain on the inlet and the hole through the front casting . . . 8^(
Sorry, too, if I've just confused the issue. Please don't hesitate to come back for clarification and let us know how you make out.

Last niht I dreamed about the day that I plowed the field of about 10 acres over on what Jimmy and Dandy called the Ledbetter field. I was driving the 1948 8N Ford tractor that Jimmy bought in 48 new This was prebably in about 1951 and maybe even befor the house was built. This would have made me to be about16 years old and I drove the tractor for nothing and would have paid to drive it if I had had any money which I didn't, but neit
