Can anyone ID these parts? Hurricane? Harvard? B17???

I think the handles maybe from Harvard or B17?

Peter, the two middle images are of a Harvard starter handle, it’s definitely a winter job starting one by hand!

those handles were used on most US WW2 aircraft including Tomahawk…sometimes for starting, sometimes for winding down undercarriage on the bombers (witness the right hand one)
