What is your interpretation of a "speedo head" and where do you consider it is?. I always thought the "speedo head" was the body of the speedometer containing the speedometer drive gear and odometer.

It's apparent that whoever wrote the manuals considered the "Speedo head" to be the connection joint of the speedo system to the transmission, using the term "head" to mean point of connection in the same way as in "Beachhead, "Railhead" or "Borehead". It depends which way you look at it. From one direction, the "head" is the end of the system, from the other it is the first point of contact.
