Default Some Help Please 216 Engine

Evening Chevy Experts

A friend of mine is rebuilding a 216 and would like to know if he has the oil pick up the right way round?

I have no specific evidence of the pick up orientation in any of my reference material but an illustration in a parts book indicates that your friend has it on the correct way.
It probably makes no difference, otherwise there would be mention of it.

Tony,

Here is the pickup on my C8 engine, before I started the rebuild.
