Full of tension?!

Saturday's dumb question...

Any easy way of visually identifying whether an early 911 has had pressure fed tensioners fitted?

There will be oil lines "T"ing off cam lines and entering the front of the chain housing covers.

No problem!

On each side of the fan you'll see the timing chain covers, there will be a very obvious small oil line leading to the front of these covers, such as the photo attached>>>>

(Not my motor, but shows the oil fed tensioners well......)
Anything else, just ask?

Thanks guys,

These little nuggets of information will one day perhaps make me a (slightly) wiser man.

Nice engine as well.
