Looks like a crane faucet, someone will correct me if I'm wrong, as for the popup, good luck on that. don't think that make that one anymore.

You could check with a salvage yard, or contact the manufacturer of that product.

I would say that is American Standard with barrels instead of seats.

Their website is not that great but they specialize in obsolete parts. They have been around forever. Send them a picture and they may have it.

They need some serious help with that website.

That Ruud heater is still kicking because the tank is made out of solid monel. There is an advertisement for them in a 1940's copy of Life magazine. A solid monel 50 gallon tank would probably set ya back 3000.00$ today.

Sell them a new PO assembly. Take that heater out and straight to the scrap yard. i beileve Flyn Brain, made a post about how much copper was in one of those old Ruud Monel heaters.
