For future reference, here's some pics of the Hudson/Nash oil pump. Note the pressure relief is on the opposite side of the casting.
Also, on this engine I did not need to remove the lower flywheel cover to remove the oil pan. I'm not sure what is in the way on the standard Packard engine.

By the way, it's a Nash/Hudson style 320, which has a vacuum pump under the fuel pump. IDK what oil pump was in these, I assume they just used a plate instead a second vacuum pump.
With the three versions Packard used, the HASH, the Hawk, that's five different oil pumps on a very short production life engine.
