Hi Rob,
Here you go...
Looking straight at the back of the carriage. The feed shaft runs through the cradle at the bottom, in which a worm gear runs. The shaft directly above is for the longitudinal feed and the one to the right is the cross feed. On the right is the engagement for the cross feed (the longitudinal engagement in on the saddle).
Side view.
Top(ish) view.
I'm pretty sure I posted these earlier but this is what I am using as a reference (from a similar lathe).
EDIT: I just went back and you can see some of these pictures in context in posts 14, 15 and 16 and post 64
