Thanks! I frequently visit your thread to look at pictures and comments!
Right now I am plotting the move of the Dipstick and oil filter. The current dipstick is going to be positioned on the "back side" of the block, as it will be installed. You can see that position in the picture above.
Luckily, Kubota casts in several bosses for the dipstick on this particular engine. I just have to drill one of the undrilled ones. I'll probably snag a longer dipstick, too; there are several to choose from based on the various equipment that this 05 series block has been installed into.
The oil filter, as
Kimer6 has said, must be moved in order to allow the drive axle to reach the wheel. Kubota has 2 installation locations for the oil filter, but I am unsure if I can just swap the plug and the filter, or if I must relocate some internal components and check balls, etc. I'll be sure to snag some pictures.
