I have been searching high and low on the internet for a picture of a KT17 with that style air filter, it looks like Gravely's might have had that but they were red, and the only other place I found one is on the cover of the Kohler service manual. Hopefully it is a replaced Series II, and they swapped over the tins from the series I. That'd be pretty awesome.

seems like I saw a Deere with a square air filter but not sure.
They also used those engines is many industrial applications, as well as
skid steer's
The oil sender area will tell you for sure what you have.

That is what my 782 has in it from the factory, Series 1. The filter is round.

That’s an Allen screw.

And serial number tag on the side tin, same side as the ID label.

Engine is a 1979. Is there a spec number on it? Spec number 24300 and higher is a Series II.

That's an early series 1 air filter housing. My Grandparents 782 had that housing.
I don't have the serial # of their tractor offhand but I'm thinking it was early production, definitely IH built.

So as I’m trying to figure out what I have, why does this engine have an Allen screw instead of a plug for the oil pressure switch. Ol’george and several other places say that’s a tell tale sign it’s a series 2. If the engine runs it runs until it won’t no more. But I would like to know what I have. I guess I could go mow a hill and if it makes a window it was a series 1?

Throw that hill roomer out the window the rod went through.
Me thinks you have a series TWO
Now if you want to sleep better, just screw a pressure gauge in that hole where the allen plug is, and start it up.
Use Any gauge or fitting you might have around will work.
about 5 pounds you have a series 1
Series 2 runs #50+++ (I've seen #80 cold) down to #15 hot.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
