Need help identifying Massey Ferguson Sickle bar mower

[yolodrew]

Hi, I am trying to help my neighbor find replacement rock guards for an older sickle bar mower. I can't find any part numbers on the unit. I've found several sites that sell the replacement rock guards but I'm not sure which ones to get. Any help identifying would be very appreciated.
Attached are some pictures. Thank you.

I have an MF31 sicklebar. Looks like this. The drive unit configuration is a good indicator of the model.

Thank you for the response, and for posting the pictures. They are helpful.

I've got one just like it, I was told it was a model 32 but my data plate is missing. I bought a model 32 parts book and everything looks the same but the frame is different in the parts book. I can look up a part number in my book if it will help you.

Thanks again for the replies. I decided to purchase a DM700 universal rock guard for 7/16" mower bars and it has done the trick. It is not the exact same as the existing guards because it is universal, but I am happy. A quick search turns them up for about $8 each.

Thank you.

How do you like your MF 31 mower? I need a sickle bar mower and found one of these for $500. Think it's a good buy? Thanks

I bought mine at auction for $550 and invested about $200 in new guards, sickle sections to get it working. I used it one season and had trouble with jamming.
