I did a number on my oil fill tube swapping it to another manifold on my 52 F3. It works but doesn't look too good.

Are there stock replacements out there?

Check Speedway and Ebay, they are available. mike

Check with Glenn Sanders by PM, since he is a member here. He deals mainly in parts for '48 to '52 Ford PU trucks.

If you have access to a lathe, it's easy to make one out of extruded aluminum or steel. tubing.

I do have a lathe and making one was plan B. Looks like I might make one if I cant find one.

Thanks for the tips for locating one as well.
