Hi Jon,
I have had the oil feed pipe fail on a three bearing engine.
( I cut a spanner up and welded the jaw back at 90 deg to do the nuts )
I just chucked in a new set of shells and made a new pipe out of annealled copper tube.
I put a loop in the new pipe to allow for vibration and expansion.
I have used orange LPG pipe as an oil feed which has lasted for at least 10 years at 60 PSI pressure fed 2 bearing with Talbot oil pump conversion.
