TR-4A - Fan mounting question

     The fan mounting on my '66 TR-4A doesn't seem anything like the 
illustrations in either Bentley, Haynes or the Moss catalogue.  In their 
illustrations, the hub, pulley, hub extension and fan are all held on by a 
3/4 " dog bolt that bolts directly into the crankshaft.
     In my car, the hub extension and what would be the dog bolt (about 1 
1/4 in in diameter, with indefinite hex shape) seem to be a single solid 
unit.  The only visible fasteners are the small nuts and bolts which join 
the hub, pulley and hub extension.
     Has anyone seen an arrangement like this before?  If so, what is 
holding the whole thing onto the crank?
        Thanks.
John Cowan
