Spitfire art ID and Seafire propellor

Sorry to post a boring parts ID but I’m stuck with this one. Although I’m trying to do a MK1X Cockpit the part I have doesn’t appear to be much use to me as it maybe an engine starter socket mount? A fellow member has suggested this but I was told initially it was something to do with an oil cap ?
Moving on. I have recently obtained a set of 3 Seafire blades with the reference RA10271 which were fitted to Seafire 46’s and 47’s. Two of the blades though are still screwed into what I can only describe as large ciruclar metal collars. Has any one got plans that show how the propellors were fitted to the hub using these collars.
Is anyone working on a Seafire project
Looking forward to the invaluable help which I always get from fellow members.

Hi ,the pitch of the three holes looks very similar to ground supply hook up mount, but not like spifire one’s i’ve seen .
