Oil feed pipe
Oil feed pipe for the cylinder head and rocker box oiling circuit, cataloged for 1969.
This is the oil feed pipe that shows up in the cylinder head and rocker box figure for the 1969 catalog year. It's part of the top-end oiling arrangement that gets oil up to the rocker gear so the valve train stays lubricated. The legacy number for this one is E9271, which is just the older letter-prefix form of the same part.

We only see it appear a couple of times in the catalog record, both tied to 1969, so we can't speak to how long this exact piece carried forward or back. If you're working on a cylinder head or rocker box job and need to confirm this is the right feed pipe for what's in front of you, give us a call and we'll go over it with you before you order.
As with most oil feed lines in this area of the engine, keep an eye on the sealing points at each end when you pull it — a pipe that's been in place a long time can be brittle or the fittings worn, so it's worth a close look before you put it back into service.
