Scavenge plunger
Scavenge plunger for the oil pump assembly, works with the pump body to draw oil back to the tank.
The 70-1476 is the scavenge plunger out of the oil pump assembly, one of the two plungers that work inside the pump body to pull spent oil back out of the sump and send it up to the tank. It shows up in the parts books under the older E1476 number as well, so if you're working from an early book and see that reference, it's the same physical piece.

This plunger lives in the oil pump and release valve area of the engine, and it appears across the pump and manifold figures in the catalog. The scavenge side of the pump does the job of keeping oil from pooling in the crankcase, working opposite the feed plunger which pushes oil out to the engine.
Our catalog record ties this part to appearances spanning 1960 to 1966, but we don't have anything more specific pinning it to one model. If you're ordering for a particular engine, give us a call and we'll confirm fitment before you buy.
