Hi guy's
when I was timing my motor at the weekend, I had the valve cover off. I noticed that there is a pipe that comes up into the head at the middle of the cylinder head, and connectes directly to the camshaft. Mine was snapped off, and just resting in there.
I'm assuming that this pipe is part of the oil feed system, probably to feed oil to the camshaft and rocker gear. I say assume, as the valve for number one cylinder looked distictly 'dry' compared to the other five!
I have scrolled thru' everywhere I usually use on the net, but can't find a detailed picture of this pipe, or a description of what it does. Any advice?
Oh by the way, the motor is a '54 vintage 235. I have a spare 216 for parts, do anyone know if this pipe is to be found on the earlier motors?
Thanks in advance
Taff
