A 1953 and earlier low-pressure oil lubrication system needs the tubes in the left pan. They spray oil into the "dippers" at the bottom of the rods. You must use this style oil pan.
The one on the right (1954) is the first year of the high-pressure (sometimes called "full pressure) enclosed oil lubrication system. | | |
