  View original topic: front cam bearing by the oil seal - no oiling hole in case?

Hi everyone,

Just a quick sanity check - is there not supposed to be an oiling hole in the right case half front cam bearing boss? I see the oil drain-back slot, but no oiling hole.

All other cam bearing slots in both the left and right case halves appear to have an oiling hole, but just not this one, so 5 out of 6 cam bearing halves will have pressurized oil with the engine running.

I confess I've never noticed this before. Thanks in advance - Ted

The oil supply hole is in the 3-4 side

Cool thanks man! Just wanted to make sure I didn't have a one-off, "custom" aluminum case :P
