ford 1100

I have a 1980 Ford 1100 diesel 2wd compact tractor. I started it up the other day to move and left it to warm up. When I came back to it it was leaking engine oil from the front of motor down onto front axle and dripped to ground. I haven't dug into it yet but was hoping someone here would...

So I ordered a Nissan Micra 1.2L pressure plate off eBay. I took my old pressure plate and clamped to the new one. Center punched, drilled, and filed to match.
