Default Oil feed lines? Which of the two?

I know it's weird, but it's impossible to find a photo of this on the net. My FXSTC 89 has to oil lines on the pump placed side by side.

Which is the feed line? The one on away from the bike, or the one toward the bike? (Starboard or Port)

On my dyna there is only one line going to the pump... the feed line. There is one line slightly above the pump, right in front of the breather gear, and that is your breather hose. Could you be confusing the two?

There is the return line but on my bike it's going to the oil cooler and you can't see it. It's on the very BOTTOM of the pump.

The feed is the line coming from the oil tank. Do you have an HD manual? If not, you definately need one.

The one in the middle of the housing plate on the rear of pump is your feed line, the one pointing forward on the bottom goes to your filter. The line from the bottom of your tank will be your feed line.

The outboard nipple is the oil feed to the pump.

The inboard nipple is oil out (to filter and back to tank).
