We corresponded off list.
The rear oil line fitting has been installed upside down, so the long
tube is sticking out the block. He can't put a socket on it and there is
very little room to get a wrench in between the fitting and the engine
back plate.
It is a tough situation and the best I could come up with was to cut and
extend a socket with some steel tube.
