ABSTRACT:
Leakage of gallery oil delivered to iron sleeves or the like cast into an aluminum tappet carrier through the opening of interfaces between the sleeves and the aluminum body is minimized by forming feed passages from the gallery wholly in aluminum material extending through larger openings in the sleeves so as to deliver the oil directly to the tappet bores without intersecting the aluminum-iron interface.
