There is a metered orifice in all air compressors. Like I mentioned earlier if you drill it out you will flood the compressor with oil. If I remember right the hole should be 1/16" .

Check the bearing support. Some of these compressors used an external line to the bearing retainer (IHC comes to mind) .There should be a pipe plug there (1/8" NPT) .

There is a hole that goes up to the rear main bearing, then it has a drilled crankshaft that feeds the rods and other bearing. The oil does splash around from the rods to get on the cylinder walls. The oil then drains back from the bottom down to the engine oil pan. All compressors have this...

Now that is a good look ! I agree the recessed gauges are much better. You need to build a prototype to find out how much it will cost to produce so I can buy one !!! I also like that the bypass valve has an adjustable pressure range.
