Uhm, Reuben, actually the regular ATN13 (yup, the one with the golden AT logo but no further imprint) should sport a rectangular shank (haven't measured, but I'd think most probably 0.2 x 0.1 mm, maybe 0.14 x 0.07 mm) nudie, just like its unfortunately incompatible sister ATS13 and the later ATN130E/132EP. I'm aware that there sometimes were exceptions, though - a forum aquaintance over from AK recently even got a bonded and hardly polished ATN13. However, that was a replacement vendor repacked exemplar - although that doesn't necessarily have to be a problem, 'cause my new old stock exemplars also weren't originally AT packed, but nevertheless all do sport the rectangular shank nudie on tapered alu cantilever combination.

Greetings from Munich!

P.S.: A bit of corrosion on the outside of the generator shell usually doesn't matter. The copper wiring inside is laquered, so it's pretty well protected. And AT's choice of materials for their carts always was pretty good, so unless your AT13Ea body had been sun-dried out in the desert or rotting in a swamp for the last 25 years, there's not much too worry about.
