I couldn't believe that the oil drain plug was a plastic push valve with a cap on it........this surely isn't stock is it??? Im hoping that I will find pipe threads in the block so I can put a pipe and cap on it.........I hate oil leaks...........

yep that's it except mine is matching red.......... ;-)........it wiil be gone tomorrow..........Briggs has a pretty hefty price on these....
I'm figuring the best way for me to post pics...this my project, I didn't get the grill and sides they may be available the owner wasn't sure if he still had them, I did get the hood, I'm not too sure that i even want to close it all up, it's a pain in the donkey when you need to work on them......I think you have four or five bolts to get it all off.........
practice makes perfect ;-)

I went ahead and put in an oil filter and filled with oil, saving the drain valve for another day........I ran the motor for an hour and had no leaks, so maybe I'll just leave it alone
