yea thats where it should be . either someone blocked it off or it came that way? looks like a sending unit for electric oil pressure gauge sticking out of the "adapter"after you get it cleaned up you might be able to replace it with one from another motor or ask around I know they used to sell a kit to replace canister with spin on

sorry Musicman70 you type faster than me ! Ha Ha
