Mystery Dividing Head

[Bob JohnstoneParticipant @bobjohnstone29549]

I recently acquired a Myford Super 7, and this dividing head was amongst the goodies that came with it. I've searched the internet for images that might be able to identify it, with no luck. So I thought I would open it up to you more knowledgeable folks to help me. What is it? Does it fit a Myford lathe? More importantly, if it does, what am I missing? Any suggestions?

I think it might be the pillar mounted variant of the Westbury dividing head rather than a Potts which was intended for milling rather than dividing.

Yes it certainly looks very similar. I will have to have a further rummage in goodies box to see if I can find additional parts that look like they belong to it. As it stands, it looks as if the base is missing.
