Just to add to the discussion. Dad had a 31 Regular & 29 10-20. Both had dealer installed kits to do just what you are talking about. Excess oil runs down past pushrods, into the lifter galley,& back to the pan. Both kits were installed somewhere around 1950. That pipe at rear of block is just a vent. Modern systems run the fumes/smoke back through the intake to be burned instead of just dumped into the air. If oil runs out there, the internal drain passages are plugged up or rings are so worn that there is excess blowby. The 3 petcocks- if oil dripped from the top one pan is full. If it drips out of second petcock, okay to run. If running distillate would drain to lower petcock & refill to top one. This was to drain off the unburned fuel that worked its way past the rings. Forgot the number of hours this was recommemded. If running gas it wasn't required. Willie
