I think that may have been answered earlier in this thread. My understanding is later motors like the 120R don't have hoses to the oil pump, as the oilways pass through the join between transmission case and crankcase. The 120R won't fit an Evo either, more's the pity!

Ready here to order a 120r in the next couple weeks. Should run great in my '07 Wide Glide. Love the great pull of the 103" we put together last winter but just can't resist this one. Will have a great, full chrome, 103" with Woods 6 and heads done this winter. Crazy selling a 3500 mile motor but will need some cash for the 120.

Had some problems with mine. Noticed it was belching quite a bit of black smoke during normal riding. When I was finally able to get it to the dyno, they figured out it was a miss-shaped head which caused scaring to the cylinder & piston. They also found incorrectly seated valves. This resulted in loss of compression/power & massive oil consumption. Had to replace everything from the case up. Upside is Harley stood behind it and paid for everything despite the engine having no warranty. Repairs were completed yesterday & it's being re-tuned & dyno'd today. I've attached the dyno sheet from when they discovered the problem & a pic of the engine right after teardown. I'm hoping to get much better numbers now that she's back together.
