That oil seal doesn't look quite right, what's going on at the 7 o'clock position?

Not sure what you mean by torque tube, I assume you mean the "prop" torque tube tends to refer to a tube around the prop it self, a method used by ford and some others, the early 7's used this setup.

In this case the stationary torque tube holds gearbox and diff (or gearbox) together, not needing chassis to transfer the torque, neat idea...

i.e:

yep get one, the torque resiliant tube acts like a rubber cush drive in the bikes wheel helping to protect the gearbox.

I've got one on mine. Mostly because it's got the gearbox outlet attached to the end of it so I just had it chopped it half then wacked up the chuff of a cut-down prop (after a little turning on a lathe) and welding in place.
