That Aico valve that Yanmar-USA used for the dealer-installed loaders must have been common back then. When I went looking for a replacement, most applications for the valve were Ford 8N and similar.You spelled it different. You do get hits on Aico. Might google around and see if you find anything that looks like yours.
I ended up replacing mine with a modern Prince valve. Here's a thread where I asked some of the same questions and described how I mounted it. Also see the links to other threads.
