Oil Filter Plumbing 1940 356CI

I've read the numerous postings about this issue, but I have a question regarding the Oil Filter Kit. I'm aware of the issue with the lack of oil to the tappets , hence the Oil Filter Kit #378858. It's described as "pipes and fittings" in Vol 15 No. 12.
Is there any description of the parts?

A later bulletin references a flow restriction at the inlet to the oil filter. Was that a special fitting as part of the kit?

My other question is the drilling and tapping for an 1/8" pipe plug for the return as part of the Oil Filter Kit. This block appears to have been drilled but plugged at some point in time. Is this the correct plug for the return?
