My motor had no oil filter canister on it and the motor I bought had one with it but it was not hooked up to it. I looked up a picture of where the oil lines are supposed to go from the filter to the motor. It appears the lower hose goes into the motor right where the oil pressure gauge line is connected on my old motor. Can anyone tell me where the oil pressure gauge line is supposed to connect to the motor?

That must be what I have on mine. It is a brass fitting with a threaded opening for the pressure gauge line on top and another threaded opening that has a plug in it. I guess the plug comes out & the oil filter line goes in there. Thanks.
