    Posted: 15 Jul 2026 at 9:09pm
Hello,

I need to re-create the oil tube that attaches the rocker arm shaft collar to the cylinder head. I'm not sure what size tube the original was but I believe the tube attaches to a 90 degree brass elbow at the shaft collar and then to a straight brass fitting at the cylinder head using copper tube and ferals perhaps? Not sure.

Also, if I'm right about the 90 degree elbow at the shaft collar.... do I need to make sure the fitting lines up with the hole in the rocker shaft as I tighten it down, or does the oil make it's way to the hole no matter where the fitting ends up?

Thank you so much in advance for any help provided!
