You can see the yellow wire bound with the others in the first pic. I'm sure it's a coil wire. Usually the frame wire is bolted to the ... frame. You should measure the resistance of the two coils. They're quite different. I'm not sure what the rule of thumb is on which is the start winding, but

Hello, this motor is a three phase induction motor where the third is supplied by a phase shifter condenser. This makes a unsymmetrical revolving magnetic field with 90 + 90 + 120 degres phase angle. This unsymmetry reduces efficiency, but no three phase suply is needed. It seems to be made
