327 intake with oil filler tube
I'm trying to find a aftermarket intake with provisions for an oil filler tube. I am working on a 63 Belair SS with a stock 327/powerglide and the owner doesn't want to change the valve covers so an old style manifold is needed. Does anyone know of a manufactuer who sells one that doesn't need to be machined?

Most aftermarket SBC aluminum intakes have a boss where the filler tube goes.
Just a holesaw cut away from a tube provision........

Sparky, can you just holesaw it? I thought they had to be machined.
