While I had it apart, I modified the oil pickup tube.  I pull the screen off, and cut the welds on it's mount plate with a dremel cut-off wheel.  Then I fluted the end by pushing it up against a ball hammer and tapping around the the edges with another.  The I slid the plate to the end and tack welded it solid.  A little more tapping on the ball to give the plate some roundness.

This is what you recommend Lynn?
