Like to 
flash to PackardInfo and invite him to include his '36 Packard in the Packard Owner's Registry.
In reply to your request attached are some bearing torque specs while head studs are 63 Lbs-Ft. Regarding the distribution tube the water pump and radiator, at least, need to be removed to access it. Think you should be able to finesse it out through the grill louvres. You may also need to raise the block slightly if the front engine mount rubber has sagged to access the lower bolts for the water pump. Do that using a block of wood on top of a jack under the pan to elevate the engine enough to gain the clearance required.
Gerd for bringing this post in from the Chat Room where it soon disappears from sight.
