Sorry about that, I meant the shaft that the rocker arms pivot on (been
working on Chrysler 2.2 OHV engines way too long!).

Subject: Camshaft oiler
Hi;
All this discussion about oil pressure and the like leads me to ask this
question. A few years ago I read a technical article on the basic
engine design of our engines that stated that there is a weakness in the
oil supply to the camshaft bearings. Any comments on the validity of
this statement?
The fix is an accessory braided steel line that goes from the oil pump
journal line up to the camshaft supply journal, which conveniently has a
removable plug in it. (I bought mine from the Roadster factory and
installed it in about 15 minutes.)
