Hi
I was at the National Motorcycle Museum to look at details of Sturmey Archer gearboxes and took a look at the series 'A' in there. Below is a photo of the rocker oil feed which is a way of converting a single feed to a dual feed with the metering jets fitted. This seems to be better than squashing pipes or peening over holes in fittings.

It’s an interesting mod but I think peening and squashing pipes is all part of the 30’s charm and it’s worked for 80 years.
