You only get one chance to be successful at replacing the oil distributor tube, and there are a few details you need to understand about it that are best discussed in a 2-way conversation. Some of the resto-ripoff parts vendors sell a kit that has all the hardware you need, plus a length of 3/16" copper tubing. DO NOT use 3/16" steel brake line tubing - - - -it will rust out quickly.
You can pressure test the oil line by disconnecting it at both ends and doing a little creative plumbing to apply air pressure to just the line itself. Jerry
