The ’54 15 has a different midsection than the ’56-’58. I believe the change actually took place in ’55 but I could be mistaken. The ’54 midsection has the drive shaft completely separated from the exhaust where it mates to the powerhead. It takes 2 separate base gaskets of different thickness even. The later midsection is not divided like that. The throttle linkage parts, however, I believe are the same. Without seeing a picture, I’m not certain of where the wear / damage really is. The gears are both separate pieces though.
