The oil filter was not standard equipment on the 46. The return STEEL line
goes to a fitting on the oil pan in front of the dip stick base. (2 or 3 inches) This was not standard either.(the dealer had to install it.) The oil filter became standard in 1947-48 and the return line went into a fitting ON the dip stick base. See the EFV8 restoration book for a good picture of this.
