On my 56 car 235, the oil canestor does mount on the intake manafold,back side of the carb. The lower oil hose goes down to a T fitting in the block, just below the throttle linkage belcrank. the oil line for the gauge goes here too. The top hose fron the canestor goes down to the block too, about 8 in. forward from the lower oil hose, and down to a hole in the block, just above the pan. Hope this helps. Good luck!
