Default block piece for the oil feed...

The feed on my block (bit sticking out) that the oil return pipe fits on to; has literally come out of the block. Whats the best thing to stick it back in with. Going shopping in min so quick answers if possible. Thanks guys

Im pretty sure they are interference fit.

Should just push in and be tight.

I dont think theres anything out there that will with stand the heat and oil its subjected to

U could always very carefully weld it in or something, not really any reason it should need to come out

Araldite is quite good for jobs like this and is oil resistant.
