Bending or actualy making a new oil filler tube was rather much to do about nothing.

All they needed to do is to mount a filler cap in the valve cover.

Hower, the bent filler tube in the pic is most likely just some stock exhaust pipe length that was pre-bent for some other automotive exhaust application. And they just stuck the filler caap o top of that.

Mounting to left side of engine i prefer. Keeps compressor away from generator and fuel pump for easier service of gen and pump.

ALtho, my 56 Exec is using a 84 toyota compressor which is rather small.
