Looking for the oil return tube that inserts into the engine rear main bearing cap. Thanks in advance!

Not a pickup tube but a drain that serves little useful purpose & is often missing on older engines. Make one out of copper or steel tube & pin it as the original, if you really want one.

Yes, return tube! Was going to look for a pick up tube/baffle also and got my posts mixed up. If anyone has a spare or trashed rear bearing cap please let me know.

I will try to make one if all else fails.
