I was able to reseal the oil pan, valve cover, and oil filter. Running 10w-40 Rotella. Filter is readily available at O'Reillys.

Also got the brake pedals/clutch pedal back on. Hopefully I can button the brake system back up this week.

My nephew and his wife are coming up next weekend. He bought my grandparents house and has the same memories on this tractor as I do. Planning on working on it with him and hopefully letting him run it around before they leave.
