Also I believe there is something wrong, I had a tractor with front loader for lumber with a chain for coupling the pump and I have never had any trouble.
Regarding the pump on the PTO, there are also with the tang in order to use the PTO, i can not find photos, however I think they are also you.

Color wheels

For some 'time I have a doubt, my Super Major is 1963 and that little paint can still be seen in the circles, you see that was orange, but I have seen some with gray circles, what is right color?
I'd like to make it like this (when I have time)

There may be two gear, maybe the change is being recorded and a few millimeters are woven two gears at once, is only a guess of course, you should try to remove the cover and see the change.

There were outfitters here in Italy that modify Fordson Major (and other brands) and there was Selene who mounted the double traction.
The headlights look like those of my own, but are not exactly equal :)

I think I have the original engine, it says 4 cylinders, but in the closed part of the bonnet, I think there's a hydraulic pump and oil tank (I'm not very sure though)
