Where can I get new / replacement oilers ( can I just use any plug for the non-olier one?), the one that threads into the block behind the timing chain ( what is the actual name? came up with zero at AZ and OR) I tried finding info using the above to no luck here...68 Olds 350...thanks

Both plugs are a hex socket pipe plug, and the oiler has a .040" hole drilled in it IIRC. One of the other members may recall better.

The front plugs are not pipe plugs, those are straight cut threads. The rears are 3/8 pipe plugs.
You can just drill a .040 hole.
Many Olds specific vendors sell the front and rear plugs. Fusick, Mondello, Parts Place, etc.

The two plugs have different thread sizes, and yes they are straight thread. I grind the chamfer off the socket I use so I can grab the full depth of the hex, since it is so shallow. The smaller one on the passenger side has the spit hole.
