early 28 steering gear

My 28 has what looks like the brass packing nut off a waterpump below the gear and above the light switch. Would this be original or something someone added to control leaking with packing?
 
What you have is the early style lower bearing retainer, used with the open bail light switch. How early is your car?
 
Heres a picture of Gary's VE 28 coupe showing the switch he is talking about. You can just maje out the part you are asking about.
