I have a WD-45 that has a little C shaped oil tube that goes from the fitting in the head to the rocker arm shaft. There does not seem to be a place to connect this tube to the rocker shaft. I have a collar in the center of the shaft that has a 1/8NPT hole in that will line up width a 3/8" hole in the rocker arm shaft but there is no way to attach the tube end to the rocker shaft. The tube end just seems to fit loosely into a hole that is too large. The block serial number is 45-2061-G Help

This is how it is supposed to be. The oil tube just loosely sits on top of the rocker shaft.

The shaft you have is for the older WD/WC tractors, the rocker arm shaft on the WD45 has a smaller hole that is not threaded that your tube will just fit in (not having a fitting on the end that go's in the shaft) so you can make a new tube and put fitting on both ends or change the shaft with one off a WD45.
