Hi Mike,
I assume engine is off, oil sender is out, and you are concerned there is no
oil exiting the threaded hole in the gallery yes?
Without the engine running, i.e. zero oil pressure, drainback will occur and
little if any oil would be present in the gallery.
The filter should remain full but that is about it.
Crank the engine with the sender out and see what happens!
Just make sure you have a catch can at the sender hole cause once the
gallery fills you should be oiling the world!
Regards,

Subject: oil sender hole question
I did not get an answer on this and wanted to poll the list once more.
should
there be oil coming out of the sender hole? I had to put a coat hanger in
several inches before I came out with oil.
