Technical Model A waterpump identifcation

Hi,
I am just about to start tearing into a somewhat neglected Model A engine to see what needs attention. The water pump is a mystery. I can't seem to find any information about this design. Can anyone tell me if its a factory part or some kind of aftermarket design. There does not seem to be any access to the packing nut and rear bearing lube point what looks like a grease point at the back is a set screw. .

 

Post this on The Ford Barn in the Model A section....they'll know.

 

That's a aftermarket.

 

Sometimes Model A engines were use in industrial applications such as generators, compressors etc. so that might be the case.

 

If its aftermarket, or later industrial application I'm hoping it has a better bearing/sealing system, as the shaft is fully enclosed. I will have a closer look when I take the cover plate off.

 

Here is an original core to compare

 

They now make a "leak proof pump" ; a friend put one on his A.
