Photo (poor) of baffled sump added. Any suggestions about removing the return tube from the oil pump to the sump? It's a press fit and I would rather take it out before taking block for a rebore.

Spec; 1700 crossflow, twin 40 Dellortos, BCF2 cam, Bosch electronic distributor, Type 9 box, 5 link axle with rose joints, Gaz adjustable dampers.…
