Re: Oil Mod
I believe it's a modification done for engines that are used for racing. High G forces can cause the normal splash lubrication of the chain to be inadequate. To make up for that lack of oil folks drill a hole to provide lubrication and to cool the chain. It's just not needed on the majority SBCs.
