Im trying to find the routing pictures for how oil is routed to that outlet in the case but I honestly can't find it.


MM,

Test if oil is coming out from the supply point. Remove the ignition distributor and oil line connected to the crankcase for the left side (cylinder 1-2-3). Disable the FP and ignition. Crank the engine using the starter and look closely if oil is spewing out from the fitting. Place some rugs by the fitting just in case it started spraying oil (?). If oil is not coming while cranking the engine, there is blockage or restriction in the oil passage (crankcase).
