Default Where is the oil jet on the SOHC VTEC head?

Since the oil jet is intregrated, where is it on a SOHC VTEC head? Is it in the same location where the non-vtec head meets the block?

guys....i am asking where is the oil jet ON A SOHC VTEC HEAD?

There is a reason why you need to take off the oil jet on the block when doing a mini-me swap because there is already an oil jet built in the VTEC HEAD, now where is it?.

yes, on my y8 head it wad under the cam caps. If you do a cam repalcement you'll see the jet in one of the caps when you turn them over. Its recommended to repalce the o-ring if you install the cam as a precautionary measure. I did when I ported/polished my y8 head. I didn't wanna tear it apart again later to replace it later
