I was fortunate to have several OEM cammer blocks when I built mine. After doing a lot of comparing but no machining I came to the conclusion that the material was there to actually drill the block for the oil return. When you study the side oilers you might take note of a bulge in the casting that runs down the block to just above the block's skirt area. I don't know if there would be any sand from the mold process in there or if you would just drill through iron all the way. I don't think the water jacket is in the way at all.
This thread, so far...
