+The oil comes into the unfiltered (big) cavity, thru the filter media and into the engine thru the center of the filter. \\

 Below are pics of the restricted orifice underneath the oil feed galley in the case that shoots a small stream onto #2 cam. \\
 #2 cam rotates counterclockwise and the oil is sprayed on the right side of the cam gear for extra cooling.

+**DON'T INSTALL a 91-99 CAM COVER GASKET ON A 2000-UP MOTOR!!!!!!!**
+The 91-99 cam cover gasket has no business being on a 2000+ motor at all. It will cause you to lose all oil pressure. ((aswracing of the XLFORUM http://xlforum.net/forums/showthread.php?t=2079110&highlight=oil+tank&page=14)) \\
+The 2000+ gasket supersedes the 91-99 gasket. In other words, it can be used all the way back to 1991. \\
+Most companies completely dropped the 91-99 specific gasket and only offer the one that can be used from 1991-present. \\
+Either James Gasket hasn't done that, or they may have some old stock. \\
+The slots in the 2000-up cam cover gasket mate to both the case and the cover. \\
+If you have the correct gasket on there, oil would be forced (between the cover and case) to all the lifter feed holes and piston squirters. \\
+With the wrong gasket (91-99), oil pressure leaving the filter gets into that galley and dumps into the cam chest, therefore bypassing the lifters, squirters and rod bearings. \\
