The correct hose in 1936 routed the oil back through a special bolt. The special bolt replaced the left hex bolt that held the fuel pump to the stand.

The photo attached is a correct 1939 system. You can detect the routing that would mimic the '36.
The correct hose and fittings for this type of system are unobtanium.
