Capelo.  As Ted indicated, the oil trough was only used on FoMoCo y-block engines in the U.S. during production years 1954, '55, and '56. 
Like the camshaft counterweight that was originally employed, and the rockerarm shaft sheet metal oil baffle trays (intended to deflect excess oil away from the valve stem umbrella seals), the engineers were likely pressured by the cost analyzers and determined that these measures were not necessary.  So, in production years 1957 - 1964, these items were removed.

As a hobbyist, I add each of these items to the y-blocks engines I put together for myself or with fellow hobbyists.

Don't lose any sleep in putting your engine together if your engine does not include these items.  If all of your clearances, tolerances, and assembly procedures are correct, your engine will give you reliable service and dependability. 

Enjoy the fruit of your efforts!

The pictured thermostat housing looks to be for a 360/360 FE Ford engine.  If the description says it’s for a 292 Ford, then the picture could be wrong or the seller missed the application in the description altogether.

That oil deflector located in front of the timing gear on the crankshaft snout came on all years of Ford Y’s.  It’s there to prevent the oil from splashing directly on the front timing cover seal which minimizes oil leaks in that area.

When I assembled my current engine, I had what I thought was an issue with this deflector.  I used a double roller timing chain and the deflector rubbed the inside of the front cover.  After the balancer was installed the clearance was adequate.   The balancer holds this deflector in position. The pink stuff in this photo is assembly lube.

thanks guys for your comments, can those baffles be achieved or would it be possible to manufacture? or just leave it without him? Any single image of the baffle

On the housing of thermostat I will consult with the seller if there is a mistake in the image, when placing an aluminum intake I would like to have it also in aluminum

While that crankshaft oil slinger (baffle or deflector by other names) could be fabricated, it would be a challenge with the number of bends that are involved.
 
The standard replacement thermostat housings for the Ford Y will be cast iron.  John Mummert does offer the thermostat housing in aluminum.  Be aware that there are three styles of thermostat housings available with one being for the passenger cars, one for the ’55-’57 Thunderbirds, and one for the Ford pickups and trucks.   I’ll post a picture later of the three most common oem thermostat housings as the hose sizes and positioning of the coolant outlet does varies on each.

Ted, today I received the valve seals and some caps, from US SEAL. Thank you for showing me that store, great prices and very fast shipping 👍

Here is a picture showing the three basic styles of thermostat housings for the Ford Y.  From left to right, 1955-1957 Thunderbird, 1954-1962 Ford and Mercury car, 1954-1964 pickup and truck.  The 1954 models used a ½” bypass hose while a 5/8” bypass hose was incorporated on the housings starting in 1955.

Ted, thanks for the information, I think I'll have to settle for my old reconditioned thermostat housing, I can't access the one from mummerte from here,
