Hi Paul, Ithink the top 2 are breathers, one connects to the crankcase breather and the other one is just a vent.Dont think it matters which is which.

The 2 on the bottom are the main feed to the oil pump and the return. The one at the bottom right hand side(with the filter screwed into the tank)is the feed and it connects to the right handpipe on the sump, as veiwed when sitting on the bike. The other upperone with the tee is the return which connects onto the other pipe on the sump to the lefthand side of the feed. The tee off this one goes to another tee to the cylinderheads.

Thanks for getting back, No tee, so that's why I can make it work,

onlyone return. I see a tank on eBay, with a small pipe coming off at

bottom. So that's what I need, so if anybody knows were I can get

one , will be many thanks.
