I am very excited to announce that my H spoke her first words in about a year . When I first bought it she only ran on three clyinders . What I thought would be a valve adjustment was a stuck valve . Had the head off , so had seats and all the valves replaced . the head was very worn .
Well from then decided to get the crank turned and rebuilt the engine . I found out what happens if you don't dig out the old oil filter seal . all the oil comes out like a waterfall . won't do that again .
Found some more leaks , leaks at a top bolt on the front timeing cover , thought that was odd .
The belly pump rear seal leaks as does the main drive shaft seal . Will fine tune now ..
I want to thank everyone who gave feedback ,
This is really excellent !!!

Congratulations Bob. That is a good feeling hearing an old piece of iron coming back to life. If you are not using the belly pump, I would recommend you remove that short drive countershaft that runs the liftall. The seal in the liftall and the main transmission driveshaft seals are fairly easy to replace. Don't be surprised if the countershaft transmission seal is leaking also.

THanks Red , I will look at the countershaft seal too .
It was nice to hear this run . I cranked it less than a second . It
sat there with a real nice idle . Very smooth throaty H voice .
Then the oil gushed out ...
I know to dig the old seal out of the oil cannister base . Fixed it and let it run about an hour . Want to retorque the head .
Do I have to drop the belly pump to get to the seal ? Havent looked at it to close yet .
At work now ..
Anyway thanks , I got bailed out several times .

Yes you will have to drop the belly pump to replace the seal. Get help to lower it. The pump/reservoir assembly weighs around 100 pounds. The face of the belly pump is the actual pump assembly itself. After you remove about 10 perimeter bolts, the entire pump assembly will come out. Stick a large screwdriver or a flat piece of metal up into the intake so the coupler won't turn. You turn the coupler counter clockwise to unscrew it. Then you can replace the seal. Don't forget to order a new reservoir gasket also. When you get ready to stick the pump back into the reservoir, make sure you get that eye hole on the cam and piston valve lever, which is on the pump, connected to the control shaft lever which is on the inside of the control rod lever assembly on the reservoir.

Bob while you have that pump out, that is a good time to replace the main shaft and countershaft seals and gaskets on the transmission. The main coupler can be a real bear to get off. After you remove the main nut and big washer, you pull it off. The countershaft coupler on the transmission is like the liftall one. Stick the tractor in gear, set the brakes and unscrew it counterclockwise. Both seals are in retainers that you simply unbolt. You can then knock out the seals on your workbench.
