Default Head Gasket Oil Passage
Does anyone know how oil gets into and out of the head to lubricate the cam? I have attached a jpeg of a head gasket and I'm trying to figure out which holes are for the oil. Thanks in advance. (1999 civic ex)

oil feed to the cylinder head comes through the center (between cylinder 2 & 3) on the back side (intake side) of the block. it sits just behind the center head bolt hole. in your picture of a head gasket, it's the egg-shaped hole.

Thanks for the reply. I have some oil in this area and I'm thinking it might be the head gasket. Thanks again.

Hondamark35. Are the two holes on either side of the egg shaped holes the oil returns?
