Ron,
No, they're only to be found only in some English Listers. I've never seen a 'roid with one. And, yes, I agree about oil pump failure. I keep the oil level on mine so that the dipper is about 1/3 to 1/2 immersed when at rest. I, too, don't like or rely on that oil pump. The pump is necessary if you have plain main bearings, as on an English engine, but the TRBs do fine with splash lubrication. As I recall, George/Joel spec'ed the oil pump as an accommodation to so many users who wanted to add an oil filter to their 'roid. The oil pump doesn't move much oil, but if all you're doing is filtering, not much flow is required.
Peter, thank you for the information!
