There should be a pipe plug on the block near the oil pan and that is where the return from the oil filter connects

Exactly when this port was added is a question. It does not appear to be there for the 22nd series since there is no mention of using it in the December 48 published instructions for installing the filter. It could have been added at the mid 49 introduction of the 23rd series as optional hydraulic lifters on the 288/327 blocks were becoming more common. Several have thought the port might not have arrived until the 24th series 51 models when they did new castings of the block to add holes for the side motor mounts.
