This is a phoenix splash fed crank. The oil is squirted from two jets in the oil gallery into the two hollows which direct it through to the big end bearings

This is a pressure fed crank (a three bearing one from a Nippy) - the hollows are covered over and the oil is fed through the crankshaft from the front of the engine.

Hope that helps.
