More precisley, an EdiTall block, patented by Joe Tall.

I still have mine -- double-stick foam taped to the head cover
on my Ampex 440B.

If I had only known. I threw away the service manual set for the 440B/C.

Thanks -- but I already have the manual set -- bought from Ampex
after I got the recorder from a government surplus auction.

Enjoy,
DoN.
