I agree the earlier 1.5, 1.6 and 1.9 D's share the block with the AHU.. So it'd be only compression holding you up at that point.
hes just trying to do something silly with junk he already has laying around. a solution for the front oil drain, which would be pretty time consuming to make, would be to make a little block of metal that is shaped the same as the alh oil drain, then drill a hole in it to line up with the 1.6 drain, then goop up the sides of it and hammer into the alh block. seems to becoming too much work just to slap some silly engine together at that point tho.

List in order of Bang for Buck (greatest to least) for using an ALH block and 1.6 mechanical head.
1. eBay
2. scrap
3. art
4. donate to science
5. boat anchors
6. practice welding and machining skills
7. charge a dollar per swing of a sledge hammer at the county fair (wear your safety glasses)
8. see how far you can throw them
9. drop them in the front yard, front door or driveway of an enemy
10. (last and least) build an engine
