Not a lot of rules back in those days. The galvanized pipes you see are the vents for the water jacket. They are mounted where the water pump would normally mount. Some guys filled the blocks and heads with concrete when they did away with the cooling system.

Is/was it common to use galvanized pipe and fittings and non-safety wired Castle Nuts on them ?
