The stamped number beside the distributor is LAA661236.
It has a short side cover.
The brass oil connector between the rocker arm shafts is fed with oil by a pipe which is press fit into the head just like a full pressure 235.
The oil line under the side cover goes from the lower left to the upper right and has threaded fittings on both ends just like a full pressure 235.
There is a 1/8" pipe plug in the head right above the distributor just like a high pressure 235.
There is a kidney shaped stamped metal cover for the oil distributor held on by 3 stovebolts on the left side of the block just like a low pressure engine, but oddly does not have the 3 inch long copper pipe coming out of it which normally goes into the side of the block. The boss beside the cover is not drilled or tapped.
I am curious to know if there is even an oil distributor under that cover.
