The left side water pump is '36, but with '35 grease fitting and screw on cap. The intake is '36 cast iron typically used on pu & larger trucks. Part number on the cast iron head appears to start with 40, to these old eyes, which would have been used '33-'35. Fuel pump stand looks to be '34, maybe '33-'34. Need more pictures as already mentioned.
Seems to be a real mix of different year parts.
