Re: Oil filter lines

On a 282 The filter supply line is connected to the port toward the bottom of the block. On some engines there will also be an oil pressure sender at the same port. The filter return connects to the upper port and provides the only supply to the valve lifter gallery by using oil returning to the engine. If the filter is removed there MUST be a small pigtail installed to connect the two ports directly or the lifter gallery will not get any oil.
Here are two different engines showing the ports. The filter styles differ but the block ports are almost the same.
Note that the photo with the canister mounted above the generator is the typical filter used 40-42 and has the inlet on the bottom. Postwar filters look much the same but have the inlet on the side and outlet on the bottom. There is usually a stamping near the canister ports to identify them.
