Feeding oil pressure pipe through bulkhead where?
As title does anyone know off the top of their heads where the pipe can be fed through easy enough to fit the gauge in the centre heater vent location

Right lads cheers, it one of those jobs i should have done when the engine was out but never mind i'll look later - i know the grommet on the passenger side is cut as i had to use it for my Ryan loom so it will go through there if the pipe is long enough

would it not be a better idea to fit a electric one instead of a capillary one if it ever leaks it will make a huge mess .
