Hi, I am starting a restoration on a 1964 XLH. My question is regarding the hard oil lines that thread into the rocker boxes. My XLCH's all have a straight oil line on the front cylinder and the oil line on the rear cylinder has a bend in it, which I always assumed was for magneto clearance when you turn the mag during starting.
I assumed that an XLH would use a straight oil line on both cylinders since they don't use a magneto, but my parts book shows the curved rear line on both the XLH and XLCH. Can anyone confirm which line should be on my rear cylinder (straight or curved)? Thanks.
