Screw (1-1/4 in. U.H.)
A 1-1/4 inch general-purpose screw used across several engine, gearbox, and chaincase assemblies.
This is a 1-1/4 inch screw, part number 14-6609, showing up across a wide range of catalog sections rather than one single spot - chaincase and chains, cylinder block and head, gearbox outer cover, gear cluster, and timing cover among them. That spread tells you it's a general fastener the factory used in more than one place rather than something purpose-built for a single job.

Given how many different assemblies call for it, keep the old one on hand when you pull an engine or gearbox cover apart so you know exactly where it came from and can put it back in the same hole. It's cataloged across a long production run, from the late 1960s into the late 1970s, and turns up in 24 separate listings in our records, so it's a part that stuck around a long time without much change.
If you're ordering from a parts book that lists this under the dotted form 14·6609, that's the same screw - just an older typesetting style for the same part number.
