I agree w/HH56 completely and I think there was a brief discussion of this in an old thread. But... look at what I found in my 1941 180 'Preliminary Shop Manual'. Unless I'm going completely blind, the output from the oil pump is directed to what certainly appears to be the bottom of the oil canister. Based on this diagram, it would appear that there would be canisters out there with the bottom labled 'INPUT'. Does the 288 have the same number of oil input/output connectors to the engine as the 356, one out from the pump, one into the lifter gallery and one back to the oil pan? I don't see one back to the oil pan on Barrie's 288, at least not where it would be on my 356's.
