You can make up a new oil line out of new tubing providing you can find a
store still selling the ferules. Look at the oldest parts store you can
find and you may get lucky, or order them from a vendor. I think I saw in
Carter's Catalog that you can buy a lengthened temp gage with exchange of
yours. This is usually for people doing V-8s, maybe could work for you
also.
