Here’s another and I believe I asked about it years ago but not sure if the answer was accurate or not. It was stated that it was a cowl vent handle but on those, pushing the knob down opens it yet on this, when pushed down, the mechanism pulls rather than pushes so could it be a hood release and if so, which side?

Also, there are these two locks which look the same on the front but the shafts are different. Both are square but one is a little longer with a flat tang at the end while the other is square all the way to the end. The longer one is 5-1/4” and the shorter is 4-5/8”, both of which are approximate measurements.

And finally, I found an AutoLite generator with the number GDZ-4801-A. The parts book shows that number but with G, F, T or V at the end and primarily for Custom Eight models. Does the A signify that it is different?
