Bob Dylan primarily uses a harmonica in the key of C for many of his songs, particularly in his early work. However, he also employs other keys, such as G and A, depending on the song and its arrangement. His choice of harmonica key often complements his guitar tuning and vocal range, creating a distinctive sound in his music.
I believe that it was the Key of D.
Since the song is in F, (capo 5th fret C) the harmonica is also F.
If it has the chords G, C, and D7... then it is almost always in the key of G. That is the key he uses

Yes, very often. In Like a Rolling Stone and many more of his songs he used a C harmonica.
a D harp or the cross of D
He plays every key but songs like Blowin' In The Wind, The Times They Are A-Changin, With God On Our Side, Mr. Tambourine Man etc. would use easy keys.

Like John Lennon, Bob Dylan, Neil Young, and Little Walter Tom Petty uses Marine Band harmonicas from Hohner
For playing blues music, it is recommended to use a harmonica in the key of C.
So what key is the harmonica for the song Oh lonesome Me by Neil Young for about the 10th time
