sorry to say you need a sump filter for a mille engine or you can modify the end of your squarecase filter to suit your engine,this is what i had to do as mille sump filters are not so easy to come by.

rear cylinder head dowel

on the rear cylinder head are three locating dowels,the smallest dowel has a pin hole at one end and larger hole at other,my question is does the pin hole face up towards camshaft or down towards crankcase,and why.

grover the glitch in the 86.4 rings is the size of the oil ring it is a oddball
size,the first and second rings are same size as used in car engines
i think toyota was the name tossed about by my engine guy,he too searched
for other options than ducati.
