Can’t for the life of me figure out the purpose of the flexible oil line hanging out on the left rear port, so I’m gonna plug it off for now. It may have been an under dash pressure gauge added by a previous owner. Comment by Kevin Miller — January 11, 2010 @ 6:07 pm |Edit This Hey Jack,

Kevin’s 270 engine which on the driver side of the engine has an oil line location sticking out towards the rear, which maybe a 270 option for the oil pressure gauge or was a mechanic’s custom relocation of the oil line pressure gauge?? Sorry, for the mis info – Jack Comment by Jack Lemmer — January 10, 2010 @ 4:56 pm |Edit This Joey

On my 228 1948 GMC engine the oil pressure gage line comes from that area, and the size of the oil pressure line starts off large then reduces down to about an 1/8 line that ends up connecting to the oil pressure gage.
