Recently bought 63 Bug. Not original motor. Ive owned many Vdubs and done all the usual engine and tranny swaps, etc. My 63 has a hose running from engine rear to "second" port on oil drain pan. That fitting is near regular centered drain plug. Second hose goes from engine rear to fitting at base of generator stand. Why the EXTERNAL apparatus? I'm converting the 6 volt car to 12 and a little stumped how to deal with this extra challenge. Do I just cap-off this extra crap and get a standard oil pan?
I dont see any threads on this topic. Thanks Rolling Eyes

Sounds like some kind of full flow oil filter scheme, but without the filter?
