i believe the following picture shows the correct block fitting for the oil intake to the filter, let me know if wrong, it's 7 or so inches back from front of block on driver side, the light is shining on it, i will need an elbow, what size it it and is it something that is available at napa or do i need to order on line?
thanks dave

The "correct" location for the oil line to the filter is actually further forward and behind the fuel

There should not be a zerk in the engine block anywhere.

Yes!, should be a brass 1/8" NPT x 1/4" inverted flair elbow, but bring your hose with to Napa to verify the hose end!. Lee

 I agree!  but a 1/8" NPT grease zero makes an excellent pipe plug when you do not have a pipe plug, I've done it many times over the years  Lee

Really, A zerk as a Oil pipe plug? sounds highly questionable to me.

All repairs are temporary until such a time as they work, and become permanent.

As my uncle once told me, "There is nothing quite so permanent as a temporary fix".
