There is no such thing. Original mag posts did not have an outside oil line.

Just wasn't interested in a modern repro set up.

My modern post with oiler looks and works every bit as good as the older reproduction. Either way, modern or early reproduction,they’re still reproductions. I wouldn’t sweat the small stuff

For what it’s worth the older reproduction magneto oil line posts seem to be made of better materials. Or it seems that way to me.

Have one of those old time accessory posts, good condition, has old oil line attached. Best to replace the brass or copper line with new.

Can coil up the old line and fit the assembly into a small flat rate box to save $$ on shipping. Otherwise will be a long box and high shipping.

Let me know. Dan Treace email: tmodelman AT comcast DOT net. (replace with @ and . )

Jim,
If you are just looking for the mag contact for the modern mag post oiler I think I have one. I'm headed out there to look for something else right now.

Original or repro ... how is the oil captured in the post to be delivered to the front bearing?

The oil is splash-forced into the open contact bottom.
