The oil comes up through the rocker support & into the center of the rocker
shaft via the threaded opening opposite the bolt that holds the shaft in
place.
They can't be put in the wrong way, but the original 12mm long bolts often
strip. The update is a 14mm long bolt, any longer than 14mm & the bolt starts
to block the oil pathway.
