What is this?
I bought a Model T at Hershey and in some of the boxes were these items. Just curious, what are they and do they belong on a Model T.

I have not had a chance to check responses. I sent pictures from my "smart" phone and thought they went through. Anyway, here are the pictures:
I find the carriage head type nail intriguing.

Re: What is this?
Accessory magneto post oilers, for '26-'27 (threaded one) and earlier cars with the 3 bolt pattern. I've never seen that type of delivery end tho…
What size is the bolt and ball assembly?

Re: What is this?
Thanks for the pix Robert. Interesting stuff. Seems like the tubes are too stingy for an outside oiler, what does that cylindrical item do ?
As for the ball-end nut, is it possible the two pieces didn't originally go together ? I've seen hinge pin finials that were threaded to go in the body of the hinge . . .
The carriage head nail looks typical of fasteners used to trim horse drawn vehicles. Fun to see these things !
