A measured amount of ether is released to the intake through a copper tube, controlled with a dash mounted pull knob that looks like the others. No glow plugs. I do not and have not had to use ether here in the mild winters of South Texas. I have used a plug in coolant warmer, when it has gotten around 30-40F here. Later 6.354 Perkins engines used an air intake warmer. Ether is not good if used in high quantity, or frequently.
