I'm replacing my oil gauge right now on my '44 H. As I took the assemble apart, it seemed really loose at the base where the fitting goes into the elbow into the engine. Also, the line that goes into the fitting that attaches to the gauge just slid right out. Oil didn't seem to leak from it, although I didn't give it a good look at the base.
