Those Dorset engines have a tacho cable connection point on the side of the block,but it would require a long cable for a combine. Marine versions have an adaptor that fits onto the block with two wires on it for an electrical tacho.
You could try some of the marine specialists eg.Lancing Marine,but you may need a compatable tacho as well.It'll not be cheap.... Or fit an alternator with a W terminal(unkess yours already has it) and link the tacho to it.

Old 1530 had a drum speed tacho only. Would imagine all the 1500 series just had that. You could use a diesel tacho connected to a suitable alternator (If the pulley sizes are right )

They do - drives off the cam - having removed a core plug and tapped two holes to mount the little drive adapter on- to which a cable would screw

The thing is how I will replace it cause all missing even the cables
Give them a call to see if they have one first. I don't expect they will want too much for all you need. Sounds like you will require the taco including the cable. The drive comes from the centre of the drum pully (the big one with the flat Belt) so just check you have a small 90 degree gear drive coming out of there as well in working order.
