Murray,

Nope. It's fine without the proof. Should've mentioned that

I still believe the 1914 is not so much an issue-date as well as some sort of fix date. Perhaps one of the locals messed it up while it was brand new

I agree with George that the rod may well be a locally made (late) replacement. As these rigs did serve during WW2 some improvisation must have occurred here and there.
