Re: R26 lubrication
Thanks for the response. I found the article in my Barrington for singles on pg. 128. Top right picture shows the rocker support with oil feed holes. My problem is that the feed holes do not line up with the holes in the head that should feed oil to them. Whoever put the supports in the head did not line them up correctly. The other support does line up and a pipe cleaner will feed through.
How do I spin the support in the head? Is it another case of "heat is your friend"?
I am trying to find all the problems the previous owners had before final assembly.

Re: R26 lubrication
I don't understand the problem with the pipe cleaner, but I think you are looking at the wrong part.

Re: R26 lubrication
How do I get the support loose enough to rotate or remove them?

Heat the head good hot and pull them out.
