ABSTRACT:
An oil filler and closure mounted, in a preferred embodiment, on an engine valve cover provides a hinged cap carrying a pouring trough which, in the open position of the cap, prevents oil spillage on the hinge by carrying poured or dripped oil over the hinge and sealing surface to a position above the filler opening for draining thereinto. When the cap is closed, the pouring trough passes through the filler opening and is stored within the oil containing compartment. A resilient seal, a spring latch, and other features are also disclosed.
