My motor has the oil filter housing with it, but was not on the motor when I got it. Can anyone post a picture of where it is supposed to mount and where the lines go? Thanks.

From what I saw there the filter housing is attached to the exhaust manifold by u-bolts?

I hope to have my 57 running this summer Dave. Maybe we could meet in Winter Haven at Perkins with our trucks (if they still have the meetings there)
