Don't necessarily confuse "fits" with "works" - I could not find any place that they said they've run that engine yet. With regard to the debate about pressure, this does equate to a "leak" because the oil that goes through the orifice does go out through the shoe onto the chain where the pressure is effectively zero, so the flow is directly proportional to the size of the hole. I'll pull the parts out again tonight and look at them and report back, but I'm quite sure from the last time that I looked that the MG part will definitely allow more oil to flow out onto the chain.
