I'm on the other side of the country but I can post you some pictures of the setup that I have on my 1925 chummy. The propshaft element will be different as I have a Spicer unit.

Robert,

some years back Dave Dye (Austin in the Shed) made a replacement pulley up for me. He may be able to do the same for you.

As promised here is the underside of my 1925 Chummy (flash and close up makes everything look very rusty; its not that bad). Hope these help.

Those photos show things pretty comprehensively, but see also the Parts List on the Association Archive pages, scroll down to page 27:

Just idly flicking through a copy of Wyatt page 197 has an excellent parts book extract showing all the parts including the two types of bracket. That's page 197 of my 1982 third edition The Austin Seven by Wyatt, may be different in other editions.
