Re: ARQ item, but what is it?

I would suggest that it is the plug that screws out of the outer hub to allow greasing, see below:

Nope
Rear hubs still intact as are the greasing plugs.
Need to check front ones.
Why the scallop?

Re: ARQ item, but what is it?

Could it be the plug that holds the carburettor linkage ball joint in place?
Don't think that this would have the scallop in that position though.

Re: ARQ item, but what is it?

It is a front hub greasing plug. The reason for the scallop is someone has pulled the outer hub off without removing it first. The scallop is caused by it being pulled over the 3/4" ball race.
