As far as I know, the pre-war 320 & 385 all ran roller rocker arms. They pivot on shafts attached to the rectangular rocker covers. I do not think those are from the multi-piece aluminum crankcase straight 8 engines. As I recall, the tappet guide blocks are integral cast as part of the cylinder block. With that said, I am sure someone much more knowledgeable will enlighten us all.
