I'll  take a stab at this from memory. The oil goes in the Rectangular hole,
it  runs down a little trough and onto the cam follower and the cam. I'm
really  not sure about the governor. I went out and looked at the pot metal
bracket  for my Fairbanks 1.5hp and there is no way to lube the governor
other than  just give it a shot with an oil can. The 3hp engines and probably
the 6's  have a grease cup for the governor shaft.



Thanks, Dave.  Now I know for sure.
Every time I get a different engine, I get a new set of questions  to ask.  
Some of the questions may seem very basic to an experienced engine  man.  I 
rather ask first before I do some thing foolish.
