Experimental O-360 with single "dual" Bendix mag, are my descriptions of the ports right? Still figuring out the whole pic thing...my daughter can do a better job with the art work but here goes...

Oil pressure relief valve.

Thanks Pat!
So It's the valve that dumps oil pressure to the sump if pressure gets too high after the cooler/filter but before the bearings. What would cause a need to adjust it? Excessively high/low oil pressure?

Alton, I did look at that link but my accessory case is not in there. All of the diagrams showed 2 mags and had 2 ports for the oil cooler facing backwards, I have the single "dual mag" with only the breather/tach and one inlet facing backwards. All of the other ports are on the right side of the accessory case in front of the oil filter.

The last picture with the nut on the end is the oil pressure relief valve. This is used to adjust the oil pressure, turning the nut clockwise increases the oil pressure, counterclockwise reduces oil pressure.
