OK, so I'm still not sure the oil lines are correct. The guy I bought the bike from had everything screwed up so I don't want to take
for granted they were correct. I have the DT frame and The oil tank has two fitting coming out of the left side of the bike one on top of the other and One on the right side of the bike. I want to be sure each one is attacking to the correct fitting on the engine.

Hope this helps!

Thanks for posting Mick, I have seen this drawing . If you notice this setup is different than mine. The two oil lines coming out of the tank are on the right side of the tank and mine come out of the left side. And the single line comes out of the left side of the oil tank and mine comes out of the right. Also my oil line enters the top of the oil pump and this one enters the bottom. I think this is for the other frame setup.
I have talked to Curtis and he has this drawing but can’t find one for my DT setup.
Using this as a guide though I would guess that the single line coming from the right side of my tank goes to the oil filter. The bottom line of the two stacked on the left of my tank would go to the oil pump and the top line of the two lines stacked on the left side of my tank would to to the block above the oil pump.
just looking for someone to confirm this ?

Is that the order which they are currently in? I know my ridgeback tank is different but the feed & return are fairly close to one another. Feed being the lower of the 2. The vent line goes into the top of my tank on the right side.
My interpretation is the 2 on the left are feed & return. Feed being the lower of the 2. Single line on the upper right is vent. I am sure one of these Gurus knows 100%.

Yes this is how mine are currently. Sounds like yours is different. Both of our feed lines seem to be the same coming from the bottom of the 2 stacked fitting going to the pump. The vent and return seem to be different. My vent is going from the top of the two stacked fitting on the tank to the port Above the oil pump on the block. And my return goes from the single line on the right side of my tank to the oil filter.
