Inverted 4 cyl? In a Moth? Maybe Ranger engine? Whatever, Valve cover probably has a scavenger pump to suck oil from inverted valve cover to oil tank. Compression release probable to open exhaust valve to allow oil that has drained into head area since last run to drain before starting. Usuall drill is to turn over engine with magneto gtounded- no spark, and exhaust valve open a few times. Steve Wittman had a inverted Buick V8 in a Tailwind at OshKosh a few years back. RN..
