I don't know if anyone has responded yet but I'll offer a couple of suggestions. I've been watching a good many brazing videos lately since I'll have to braze the belt guards for my Dalton lathe and a

The hole on top of your tail stock is a reservoir for white lead. White lead was used as a lubricant for dead centers. The pin you show does not make any sense as the dobber that was in the hole from
