The body has an open inserting end, an opposite withdrawing end, a length at least as long as the length of the camshaft receiving bore and an outer diameter no greater than the diameter of the camshaft receiving bore. The body has a lower section, and right and left side sections extending from the lower section to upper right and left edges defining therebetween an upper opening providing access into the reservoir.
