In response – here is a schematic drawing of the manifold oil drain system. I should say that we prefer to have two drain taps, one draining two intake tubes and the other a single one.
It is also important to keep the length of hose very short – we've seen some installations which go back to the rear of the engine cowling, and, particularly in cold weather, this can lead to the oil congealing and not draining well. In addition, the standard large nut on the intake tubes is quite thin, and is certainly not designed to be drilled and tapped for an A N fitting, and are liable to crack, and for this reason we make much thicker nuts with more than sufficient metal to be drilled and tapped.
