One of the key items that i supposed could be a replacement but looks original is the threaded gear box change lever that goes on top of the qcgb. The second model 100 mk3B (i believe was the correct designation, the one that atlas renamed when they took over Clausing in 1945) has a cast handle that does not have any way of attaching a knob to it, it has a flat elongated teardropish shape to it. Where as my lathe has a 3 inch or so piece of 1/4ish Rod that is threaded on the end for what was originally a black ball knob which mine is missing. My lathe has the spot for the "clutch lever" and i even have the lever in the milk ceate that came with the lathe just none of the clutch guts. I'm assuming there was no longer a need after the motor was changed but i also think that it had more to do with the belt tensioning and if so my lathe could definitely benefit from having that ability back! No big rush on the pictures, I'm just happy someone is willing to share with and help educate my on the subject.
