I'm confused. That's an alloy Connecting rod fitted to a crank throw. Nev

as it looks like there are no rocker spindles...
Are those important?

Thanks for the comments.
The bike sat in a Nebraska barn 62 years.
The head was sitting loose on the cylinders when I got it.
Engine was disassembled, cleaned crank passage, new pistons.
Still working on oil leaks and speedo cable.
Some photos.
