I'm tempted to agree with Craig about the cam plate oiling significance. Well at the very least an 80% agreement.

The Packard cam plate oiling design always struck me as a rather 'ham and egss' design too.

However, in the case of Pnt or Chev we would have to look at the overhead drain back holes in the cylinder heads to see if they are positioned over or closely over the cam gear.

At one time i thot of rerouting the PAckard V8 FILTER DRAIN BACK over the cam gear. These ideas are worth more analysis and careful consideration.
