I have one of the cranks, and have successfully started the beast with it.

If needed, I can take pix

Yes, on our1952 M43 there is provision for a hand crank on the engine
damper/pulley, a slip release kind of thing plus the hole in the bumper and
relief in the radiator. The 1952 M37 only has the bumper and radiator
mods./Bjorn
