Throttle Master Cylinder for M48 Tank, can mod to fit M20 or M8 armored cars maybe others?

I have for sale what an expert said is a M48 tank throttle master cylinder. This apparently can be modified for M20 and M8 armored cars by reversing the location of the splined linkage shaft. When I had my M20 MC out, this looked identical to it. I have not used this one. It is fresh out of the tatty bag it came in. Maybe it was used in other tanks and I wonder if there was an airplane application?

This is the side where the shaft is supposed to be on a G176 and G136. That is a pressed-in plug:

Not a lot left from the foil lined bag it came in:
