Without the book in hand, I am pretty sure that it is for installing the upper drive shaft seal. That seal is knocked out from the rear and installed from the front. They came in two sizes, car (this one) and double A truck. There would have been a 2ed tool for installing the sleeve (again two sizes).
I know the voices aren't real but damn they have some good ideas! :shock:

Hey Gene. Where are you located in Nunn? We went through there a few days ago by accident. We were just driving by on our way to Cheyenne. May get back out that way again one of these days now that we know where Nunn is. :) Our youngest Son and his family live not far from Fort Morgan. Dave

Looks like A310/AA310 in the catalog page. Described ass "Propeller Shaft Grease Retainer Placer". Likely the A and AA prefix for for the Model vehicle
Also found this site which has an entire catalogue (also they have for l ater years)
