Twin disc clutch

[FridayFarm]

Folks,
Last year I bought a 1937 Gleaner/Baldwin model a power unit. I noticed that the flywheel cover wasn't drilled for drainage. Never seen one without the hole and cotter pin at the bottom. As a result, the twin disc that bolts to the flywheel is rusted half-away, and the cast-iron hub is shot. If anybody has one laying around,let me know.
Thanks, Mike

Replace it with a stock A unit.

Are you looking for the clutch or the flywheel housing?

I had considered the stock A clutch, but the throwout bearing being brass, it would soon wear out with the clutch released. No pressure against the 'bearing' except when engaging or releasing the clutch. It might come to that, but I'd surely have to stop the engine to stop whatever I'm driving with it. If I were to modify it to use a 'A' throw out bearing, when the PTO is disengaged, it would be like having your foot on the clutch pedal for extended periods of time. Keep in mind, there's no gearbox to place in neutral.
Thanks so much for the reply.

I am needing just the clutch assembly. This is what I got. The flywheel is stock 'A'. As you can see, there was a bit of rust...

Is there a name tag on the clutch housing with a model number?
