Oil Pressure line on V8 350
Alright guys, so my oil pressure line broke today and my engine got "redecorated". My question is, where does the line connect to on the engine? As far as I've noticed it somewhere near the distributor, but I can't really see where it is.

Re: Oil Pressure line on V8 350
It's on the very back of the engine, it almost seems as if it's coming out of the intake manifold but it's actually out of the block. It's just about directly behind the distributor. There is a fitting that winds into the block and it comes from there.

Re: Oil Pressure line on V8 350
How easy is it to get to it while the engine is still in the truck?

It is in a difficult spot,but not hard to do,it's basically all feeling with your fingers. Don't forget to teflon the threads.

Re: Oil Pressure line on V8 350
Thanks a lot guys. I just went out into the cold night and checked for it and I found it! If I can't find an adapter, I'll end up switching the whole line.
