Ok, lets start over. everdently you have a an 8BA, 49=53 intake on 59Ab 48 and older engine. On the front of the 8BA intake there is 2 holes about 1-1/4 in dia. The rear one is where the oil filler pipe belongs. The front hole suppose to have a breather pipe that curves down around the front cover and along the left side of the oil pan. NOW under the front of the intake there is a breather pipe. On the 8BA engine the pipe stick up about 1/8in. above the block gasket surface and sticks into the intake manifold where the front breathe pipe goes. On the 48 and older engine like yours the pipe is shorter and does not stick into the maifold and breathes out of that vent in the oil, pan. SO, you may be pouring oil in the front hole and it's going right down the pipe. At this stage of the game you probably better off plugging the 2 front holes and pour oil in the rear of the intake. Everdentaly your running an electric fuel pump. Walt
