I have a project for a family member, they found this old AOU and want me to repair it. They messed up the stater and rear gear box cover. If anyone has these parts for sale let me know, Thanks.

Its a 12 Inch AOU. I did not take pictures because the guy I am working on it for took it apart and it seems to be all there, but he removed the windings and taped them and tried to put them back in. I still get a reading when an ohms tester is put on but I would rather just do it right not to mention he could not jam some of the windings back in. I know I will put a day working on it and still have to buy a stater.

There were multiple years of AOU's with 2,3 & 4 wire headwires. Which form is it? How many wires?

The speed coil is in the switch. The switch has two wires in two wires out, So I would say 2 wires, but its been messed with a lot. But the person I am doing it for is a watch repair shop, so I don't think he took out any wires. I would have to say two wire.
