Thanks"

Buy a long 1/8" drill bit

Buy a long 1/8" drill bit (8-10") Drill horizontally in the snout till you get to the first main journal. Then drill off the oil feed passage on the first main journal till you meet your horizontal passage. The object is to connect the two. Remember you will also need the bolt with a hole in it to attach the snout gear.
