The circular rings on your master look just like my master in my ‘52 1/2 ton. That would have a copper gasket compressed to make the seal. Not sure that would be pipe threads as mine were not and had a special fitting attached. I can’t say that yours would be plumbed like mine but like I said before it looks just like the end of mine.
We need a ‘bolter with a ‘59 1/2 ton to chime in and give us some pictures of not only the master but how its plumbed!
