Help identify dutch oven please.

The lid is definitely Lodge. The numeral on the bottom of the flat bottom kettle (not dutch oven) looks like Lodge also, and those were made in sizes 7, 8, 9. Old catalogs did say the kettle converts to a "deep dutch oven" with the addition of the lid. Is there a tipping ring on the side of the pot not visible in the photos?
 
A metal ring attached to the side of the pot to facilitate pouring while still hot. Or is there an protruding attachment for such a ring?
 
no it is smooth all the way around

The kettle was produced at least up until the 1950s. The style of the markings on both pieces suggests they are from that era. Perhaps the ring was eliminated at the point they switched to automated molding, around that same period; it could very well have been problematic to accomplish in that setting.
