Need help to identify MF 65

Hello,
New to the forum. I've got a MF65 tractor that my grandfather bought new. I've been using it for the past 50 yrs. and am now having PTO clutch issues, slipping.
From checking the chassis number SNDW 700888 here, I believe it is a 1963 yr. model. It has Multipower and a floating seat. The engine is a Perkins with number 2960393 stamped on the left rear block . The injectors are tilted to the left. How do I tell what engine it is and if it's a MK I or MK II? It has the large fuel tank and cavity for 1 12v battery.
I've split the tractor to install a new clutch assy. The clutch assy. installed has 12 springs. I've read here that mine is supposed to have a 9 spring clutch. I'm confused as to what my tractor is and what clutch assy. to purchase.
Need some quidance please.
 
Looking at the clutch page on the YT parts list, it appears there is a 10 spline pto and a 25 or 10 spline drive disc.

See which discs you have, read the descriptions carefully. That should narrow it down to one of the top 2 complete kits.

If yours matches the middle kit, then you have the option of medium or heavy duty. I assume the 9 spring is medium, 12 spring id HD industrial.

If yours is a 12 spring, and you liked it, wasn't too hard to hold the pedal down, go back with another 12 spring. I assume they are interchangeable.

Might get a better answer on the MF forum below.
Clutch Assy.
 
What's the tractor serial number? Did you find the serial number plate.A 63 would have the dished steering wheel and the aluminum front emblem,not the chrome bird.
 
Hello Ray,
The data plate I found was on the left side fwd of the start switch. The number stamped into the plate is SNDW700888.
I assumed that is the tractor S/N.Am I correct or is there another data plate?
