Janey you are right, my 15k88 and my 15b both have the 11 o'clock bobbin case but my Omnia M12 has the 1 o'clock case (which is now the standard bobbin case found on most modern machines)
Kelsie, I found this video about the Singer 237: at about 2min, you'll see the lady remove the bobbin case and it a 1 o'clock, like the one you showed on your pictures

EDIT to add: On his website, Thierry Hacquard confirms that the 237 has an oscillating hook system which adds up to the rest of your parts! (I put the link in case you are comfortable reading French
)

Thank you, Seb. Good illustrations.
I checked out Thierry Hacquard's page about the 237 at work, as it has Chrome and will translate the page. It actually took me a little time and had to read through the whole page to figure out what he was referring to as "the claw." Here we call them "feed dogs." I also wish he had shown the
rotatable volt selector.
