Default KRW engine stand adaptor

A friend of mine has this KRW engine stand adaptor but we don't know what it is used for. No markings on it except KR Wilson.
Does anyone know what it's used for?

I posted my question in the other Fordbarn forums also, and I got the answer in the Early V8 forum. The adaptor is used for the Y-block engine, and it is listed in KRW catalog #59 from 1959.
