Front housing for a 7.5 DF serial #J0005318

What front housing should i be ordering for this motor. It has a 15mm crank dia. I'm going by pictures and come up with the 31-8722 only because it has front intake rear exhaust and says 15 mm crank.

This is the correct hsg but it uses a draw bar to hold the carburetor, not 2 screws. So if you are replacing one with 2 scres you will also need the draw bar.

It shows 2 different housings in the exploded view and the one for the 15mm crank shows 2 screws.

Actually the one shown in the diagram is wrong. Both 15 and 17 mm use drw bars. The mold was changed long ago and none with the screw mounting are available.
