The paper tape reader has a spool on the right side, and there is also a
basket that hangs downward (not pictured). The screws that protrude
outwards are to hang the basket. I did not see any evidence that the
machine had the hoppers you described.

I am taking offers on an SEL 810a mainframe
computer. It includes three
cabinets, a Teletype Model 33 ASR, as well as a vintage wooden box filled
with spare cards. This machine was installed in 1969 and retired in 2006.
It is in excellent condition. It has a front panel with blinkenlights,
and
one of the cabinets has a Nixie tube numerical
display. I have shared
pictures of the main cabinet and the spare parts box at the following
link.
The Digitronics paper tape reader in it is same as the PDP-7 reader, and
only a very tiny
cosmetic change from the Foxboro FOX-2 reader. Seeing the shiny bit on the
output side
I'm guessing there should be the two brushed stainless steel hoppers with
six-sided front
cutouts for the input and output, is anything like this around?
