[HAM] BC tremulant oil threads (again)

I just looked inside my D (sn 1260), and it appears that there is a small
silver tube which is connected directly up from the tremulant coupling box
into and fastened to the leftward floor of the cup. I looked in with a light
and angle mirror, so I could see it well. There is the expected thread going
out rightward thru the horizontal tube and down to the motor shaft bushing.
It looks original and undisturbed. However, there is no thread going into
the rear (tremulant) vertical tube, looks like the oil just runs down into
it by gravity. Hope this helps.
